As on the last day ~ Tuesday, August 4, 2026

As on the last day... After the party, everyone drove home forget drunk driving with driverless cars terrible as the future may appear every day gets better under the dome remember, we all have some place to be the night was a success, emptied the bars hand over fist, we paid rent without fear eviction for no good reason, we slayed pushing the envelope, the money tree answered all of our prayers, shaking leaves remember, no one cares unless they know to protect in service, the record sleeves yesterday, spun with the vinyl, we grow empty, full of hunger, and still we prayed virtually day and night for others exactly when did we begin to see remember, how the light made us buoyant yes, lighter than water but who bothers obsessive-compulsive photon junkies nobody understood under the sea empty space beyond time made us truant drunk on the darkness, as on the last day remember, poison kills slowly, flunkies only grace lets us feel lighter than air vision beyond the ...

Not even to save my own life, help me! ~ Monday, August 3, 2026

If I try to write a novel, words fail fortress of solitude, if I portray I see myself in the mirror, reflect trust in the characters, held without bail rely on the scene and setting to move yesterday into tomorrow, I pay to live with all my dreams as to deflect off the walls like a racquetball, this room witnesses observe what I have to prove rely on description, the mirror screams in a moment of reflection, so pure to dip a toe, the quicksilver of dreams enter the imaginary, endure architecture as narrative, the loom notices in the weave, the warp and weft objects to make a tapestry, image views the maker without deceit, such grief emerges in each line, sentenced, bereft literature reads beyond devices words fail my hand to reach into my rage objects of psychological belief resound against the walls, an empty space demonstrates mind, an ideal suffices suppositions as to explain the brain fellow travelers find themselves so lost architectonics of the novel, the...

The Gift of Life ~ Saturday, August 1, 2026

Romans 6:23 (KJV) 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Identity, the Other and their Self Identity is a tricky concept definitely set on recognition every individual seeks the same not so, says the Other, to intercept tolerance, a pass, the Self, soon, fumbles if to say, I observe opposition tits on a bull, acceptance is to blame yet, I accept everything as it is the choice to judge, to exclude the shambles horrific as a battlefield, who cares each person seeks the real within themselves Otherness as alterity, who shares the ideas of ethics, rows of bookshelves humble booksellers on a show, Pop Quiz enter the country as a child, stranger remember nothing of the past, the clues act as a guide, as words in holy books nothing but the sinister as danger defense mechanisms arise, to cope the Pope and his messengers play the blues how to navigate all their dirty looks everyone identifies with the lies inso...

シカゴ 支所 スポーツ Shikago Shisho Supōtsu A dead-end job, this shit show company As I walk through the basement, the phone rings dead silence, no one on the other line emptiness as if from beyond but where ask if anyone is there, Macie sings difficult to hear if there is a voice emptiness still, hang up, this life of mine nothing but calls, your dime, from over there decide to move on, cannot, stuck, to scream just does not make sense, do I have a choice of course, you always have a choice, they say but, of course, you do not in the moment this life in retail is hell, with no pay help me, somebody, help me, I am spent if this is my karma, just a bad dream sever the corpus callosum, I shake shit-show blues, delirium tremens, I wake hollow inside, choose this alcoholic infernal afterlife, did I do wrong to choose this job, this position, this place shelves of shoe boxes, this must be a trick how beautiful, the options for people only, it feels grotesque, the odor strong ...

A Prayer for the Dying ~ Thursday, July 30, 2026

Dear God,      Yes, I am ready to Glock out ever so, ever so...what is the point aspire to burn the house down, tired really, ever so, ever so...I doubt God forbid that I do anything good or worthwhile, my God, is time out of joint decidedly, they say, I am fired Yes! Freedom, liberty, release, at last echoes of a bygone era, dead wood smolders, charcoal embers, burn down the house I know that I am wrong for this world, wrong as stranger danger, a foreign-born mouse murdered by politics, just for a song ready to give up the ghost, an outcast empty vessel no one can fill, broken as a child, a little too wild, unsafe decide to pay less attention, let go yes, responsibility, unspoken tolerable for some, or for no one obey the rules, go to school, a naïf Glock muzzle sniffs my soft palate, just so left to my own devices, I grew up obviously, choices I made alone consequences for my actions, duty kindness, and love but no one do I trust only Deat...

Speculation as the Fine Line between ~ Friday, July 24, 2026

You know you have just one chance to forgive You know you have only one life to live or is that just a lie, a confusion understood and misunderstood as fact knowledge beyond reason you must forgive no one knows beyond what is common sense only reason can discern delusion would that you could see this play in one act you know what I am talking about: life only, you see, time makes all the difference understanding that you cannot return honestly, a weight lifts, life is a gift as each moment passes, decades to burn visions of the impossible, a rift each moment shifts with choices full of strife juries of angels and saints to observe understand all the lies, decades at church stories they tell each other from a book tell me which way to drive and when to swerve only this world, I cannot understand not just when they hurt or try to besmirch each name and reputation, take a look change your patterns of thought, as to make strange however convoluted this journey as if...

Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave ~ Friday, July 24, 2026

Who, what, where, when, why, and how, the sequence has no order, rhyme or reason to find as a non-native speaker seeks to speak truth to injustice as a consequence When things get out of hand as a migrant however the government seeks to bind each citizen to protect from the weak ne'er-do-well who pulls the fire alarm Who, according to the law, looks aslant how easy a task to find a scapegoat other people are the problem, they say Why question authority, people vote how they let others represent, no way yes, America is the land of harm
