if you asked me a year ago
if I’d be married now
I wouldn’t’ve known
if you asked me in December Continue reading
time
“Every Last Time”
a friend
a bond
a closeness
moving on Continue reading
“Hugs”
do your arms
feel empty
because
my body
feels bare
“Unmarked Territory”
I don’t know how many “lasts”
there are
will this be the “last”
super bowl with my kids
will it be the “last”
Valentine’s Day
will every special day
till May
be a “last”
things I don’t want to think about
but will
because it’s important
to treat every day as a “last”
and make the most of it
last
“Standing Still”
in Texas
I’d think about
San Diego time
in San Diego
I’m thinking about
Texas time
between two worlds
where time really flies
either forward or backward
in between old and new
in between before and after
in between then and now
it’s like reading a book
and saving your place
to go back to
“Facade”
time
it doesn’t fly
it doesn’t stand still
it doesn’t move
faster or slower
moments don’t count
and hell doesn’t freeze
and seconds go by
one second at a
time
“Undivided Attention”
alone means all one
alone doesn’t always mean
you’re by yourself
you could be with someone else
being alone
all one with them
nothing in the way
Long Time, No See
Yesterday, I finally connected with Lee, and we had such a good visit together.
First off, if you’re wondering why I haven’t seen him in awhile, there are a couple reasons, but neither one of them really matters (but I’ll tell you anyway). Before I begin, I’ll bring new readers up to speed. Continue reading
Publishing Road
Okay, so, the world of publishing…it’s pretty big, and in reading/watching/etc., I learned that having your poem published in a journal or magazine is a good first step (and an easy one), so I’ve submitted one of my poems to a Christian magazine to see how it goes; although, it doesn’t really “need” to be Christian, but that’s what I stumbled upon.
To be totally honest, it’s difficult for me to concentrate on publishing when rent is looming. My focus tends to be on what I “should” be doing to make money now.
Ugh, at times, I don’t like being honest, but I can’t help it.
I love God, trust God, know God…it’s marketing that I don’t know or don’t have the patience for.
Anyway, a worship flag would be a GREAT Christmas gift. [hint, hint] 😉
