Autumn’s air quite cool
Clear nights bring frost to my car
And these nights are long

Negative Self-Talk
Awake in the night
Fear whispering in my ear
White noise of deceit
Dreams of the open road
Once I dreamt
Of the open road’s
Mysteries and delights
Envisioning freedom
And escape, adventures
The discovery of myself
Now I see
Cold nights
Buried in blankets
Fog inside on windows
Surf’s call outside and loud
Leaving
At this moment
Your fingers release my shoulder
You fade into mist
Alive at Night
Moments of beauty
Senses alive with delight Embracing darkness
Embrace the darkness, but don’t let it consume you. Find the firey warmth of your heart.
A Tuesday Morning Haiku
When you move too fast
The obvious, at times, missed
Which slows me down
An Unconventional Life
My life’s been lived
At a right-angle
To reality
I’ve always valued originality over all else.
Facing Challenges
Life challenges us
When we rise up and fight back
That is when we grow
Burning Out
I’m often weary
Wondering how much to give
Will I have some left?
The cost of rage
Rage brings forth power
Everything comes with a cost
Not a path to peace
