Retirement planning



Retirement planning for
After the work is done
What if the work is
never done, not ever
Not on this Earth to
rest easy, consume
Do the minimum and
wait my turn to die
Rebel against age, live
until through the end
Always more to do
Plenty to be done
I’m on Facebook, there I’ll be able to communicate with people more directly, and also have more writing updates, beyond daily musings and light bits of poetry.

Spammers – A quick note
For all the sites/pages or whatnot that are comment bombing, my page. Do your thing.
I’m not losing sleep over it, even if I block all of it. At this point I’m using it as another metric for reach. More spam means my work is being noticed by the folks I want to, with spam being a consequence.
Not under the illusion that you will read this, you are probably a bot. For all the creatives out there hustling, this is food for thought. Keep after it and let that negativity roll off your back.
That is all, I appreciate your support.

This old thing



Aching knees
Tired back
Ringing ears
This old thing
Pushes forward
Miles ahead
Daily driver
Comfortable fit
Grown accustom
No trade-in
And you know
Interest rates

One moment?



Share a moment
A point in time
A grain of sand
One radar blip
Tiny anecdote
Past page turned
A breath gasped
Forgotten glance
Crudely reflected
Live distillation
I’m on Facebook, there I’ll be able to communicate with people more directly, and also have more writing updates, beyond daily musings and light bits of poetry.

Not this early



Notable happenings
Not a bit happening
No bull, not a thing
No bits or botherings
Nothing, nah man
Not this early fam

Passion fruit



Passion project, or passion fruit
Ripe for creation, consumption
Passionate energy, motivator
Push through tired and weary
A marathon, never a sprint
And coffee, we’ll need coffee

Seasons



Long winter’s night
Cold evening chill
Morning sunrise
Spring’s awakening
Afternoon sunlight
Summer’s heat
Evening sunsets
Crisp Fall air chills

The ground below



Luxury defined by perspective
Entitled position, rocky decline
Build a better life, daily progress
Blurry vision, the ground below
Forgotten quickly, I deserve this
Challenging steps, helping hands
Daily gratitude, inoculates view
Sever chains, greatest obstacles
Ascend beyond yourself, you
Get over, above, past yourself
Dragons are slain for treasures
Hobbits live humbly to old age
I’m on Facebook, there I’ll be able to communicate with people more directly, and also have more writing updates, beyond daily musings and light bits of poetry.

Tyrannical summarization



Summarize, quantify a human?
Data based simplifying action
Tyrannical complexity exclusion
Nuance excision, self immolation
Packaged growth inhibiting path
Algorithmic assimilation strategy
Distilled, reduced, simmered down
Humanize, accept natural chaos
I’m on Facebook, there I’ll be able to communicate with people more directly, and also have more writing updates, beyond daily musings and light bits of poetry.

Yeah, a good life…



Live your own life
Be a good person
Wake up early,
Or late, do you
Be nice, and umm
Don’t be a jerk, bro
Have fun, but work
Don’t be a bum
Have a family, but
how is up to you
Kids are great, but
Pets are fine too
Socialize, however
Don’t force it, be cool
Give more, take less
Don’t be rude, yo
I don’t know, life
life is tough. So,
Live your life like
you only get one
I’m on Facebook, there I’ll be able to communicate with people more directly, and also have more writing updates, beyond daily musings and light bits of poetry.
