Mythos & Marginalia

2015 – 2025: a decade of days


open space

  • reference points

    Will this now and then 
    turn into a “remember when?” 
    Those times etched forever
    into your soul, reference points 
    in your life in which days and 
    events will be compared against.
    How will you remember if 
    memory is left to chance, 
    or how will you recall
    that high school dance, what 
    you wore, how she smelled, 
    and all those things 
    you couldn’t tell anyone else 
    but yourself.
    A first apartment, summer’s
    drive to the lake, friends formed 
    by give and take, trust was built, 
    bonds were formed; the death 
    of a parent, or first child born.
    Stuff that matters, do you
    write it down? You knew 
    you should then and now.

  • cloud songs

       Even in silence
      quiet speaks volumes.
         In absence of music
                melody remains.
         With uncertainty
         there can be harmony.
        When questions stop
        answers start.
          Even without light,
                     there is
                             still art.

  • moments stay

  • haiku

    Do you understand?

  • different

    The pain you feel tomorrow
    need not be what you know today.

    The steps that take you forward
    can often lead to a different plane.

    The life that you’ve been living
    will not always be the same.

    The thoughts you have been thinking
    are subject to certain change.
