Mythos & Marginalia

life notes; flaws and all

Should life
serve up
an occasion
to cry,
find instead
a reason
to smile . . .

all right here…

Day by date, month into year, each letter adds up. Photography, poetry, fortune cookie philosophies, concepts, observations, unsolicited advice, messages of peace and simplicity; all right here. Daily, weekly, randomly demonstrating where I have been as much as where I will go and beyond.

Mondays are just young Fridays

For days and weeks, I will be away; another time zone far away from where I call home.

Still, each day I will wake. I will do things that I usually do, but maybe in a different way. The sights will be varied, yet my camera is the same. What will I see in my viewfinder? What will my memory take in?

What I will see is entirely up to me.

more travel

I’ve not travelled as often as I should, but find each trip ends with more than memories.

I’m packing now, making sure I take with me all I requite to find comfort where I end up.

Too much baggage can be a deterrent, and too little always leaves you wanting more.

I only think I know what I need. More travel is definitely at the top of my list.

us

Some of us
have been broken.

Most of us
are just people.

All of us
need to think about that.

You are allowed to be angry,
      even with yourself.
      It is how we deal with feelings
      not validated or justified.
There is no temporary placement
      for all you have observed.

not now


Disappointment comes early
in the day. 

Unexpectedly, you might say.

It’s not right, not now, certainly
not in May.

Still, we move on anyway.

I’m like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.
