The commonly voiced excuse for not doing something is……. “I just don’t have enough time!’ Or, closely related to this excuse…. “I’m just not sure how I can find the time to get {something} done.” Permit me to highlight the lack of true perception relating to these comments. Not having enough time is a, well, not […]

I’m here for you! (As long as there’s drama)
Many years ago I stumbled upon a quirky, creative, and insightful movie. This movie featured several scenes involving fairly prominent actors. The short scenes totaled no more than several minutes each. Each scene highlighted a different theme ranging from humorous, to scientific, to melancholy, and even ironic. Each short had different actors. In one, Bill Murray […]
Particulate
All of the particles left their source. They danced upon the breeze, pirouetted amongst the leaves, and tiptoed onthe curves of clouds. They sparked amongst the flames, chilled on the tundras of ice, bounded from rock to rock, and swam into the waves. They pulsed with happiness, and rolled with sadness, careened off nothingness, they […]
Exculpation
It doesn’t matter how deeply you dig the hole, how much dirt you’ve flung in my face, how much rancor I absorbed as it flew from your lips, or how fiercely you shake your fists at the sky, in misguided rage. When the sun beats down, I will make myself a canopy to shield you […]
Desideratum
Take my clothes and I shield myself, with rags of memory. Remove the sun and stars from the sky, and I’ll start a fire. Take my money, my job, and my security, and I’ll beg to live. Seize my music and I’ll listen, to the birds, and the beats of my heart. Wrest from me […]

There is a stilling of the air, and a calming of atmosphere, In the breaths held before dawns break. The old early riser, and the young go-getter, both feel the space, between restfulness and […]
Whiskey, Disappointment, Death.
Everyday I look at the outcomes, Each day I’m scanning the scene. I’m longing and searching and wishing for some kind of meaning. Everyday I desire an outlook, Each day want the serene. I’m begging and pleading, and yearning for everything to not be obscene. Everyday I yearn for a vista, A place to see […]
The Overseer
There is a true deity that affects our all of our lives. The choice of an ultimate, spiritual leader is inconsequential after all. The ongoing conflicts between acolytes of supreme spiritual devotees will never cease. But, there is a conceptual, albeit massively impactful, one that rules everyone. It doesn’t care whether you are agnostic, atheist, […]
Tourniquet
The tourniquet is an implement that is used to save lives. It is applied to the body near a catastrophic fissure that is causing the person to lose incredible amounts of blood. Without the tourniquet, the person would experience exsanguination, and eventual death, resulting from excessive blood loss, as a consequence of their wound or […]
The Manhattan Project
For those that aren’t aware of the historical significance of the Manhattan Project, I will provide a brief summary. Due to concerns that Germany, and the Nazi party, were funding research on nuclear power, the Manhattan Project was launched to study and research uranium. At extraordinary cost, and conducted in secret, this project would ultimately […]
