The ceramic cup sits directly on the coffee table. The hot moisture seeping from the base sure to leave a circle shaped reminder upon the wood. I don’t care. Steam shoots from the clear liquid within the cup, one form transforming to another, ghosting its former state, adding particles to and changing the air it […]

Dreams and goals
Dreams, dreams are aloft. Like clouds they float, out of reach, visible, but not tangible. Goals, goals are grounded. Like blazes on trees they mark the destinations for our feet, and our energies. Dreams, they satisfy our imagination, but goals, they satiate our souls. Humbly yours, J

Sacrifice the discipline and routine, for the efficiency of routine For words of consent, momentary content, searching for what life could mean. Passing between, man and machine yearning to be serene. Ones will is spent indifferent squandered on the insignificant. Logic for vice, reason for nice. Drive for distraction, Force for supplication.
