Mythos & Marginalia

life notes; flaws and all


open space

  • time to define

    How can we decipher
    messages not intended to
    be understood? Spoken or
    implied, there must be meaning
    in the recurring madness,
    so much so that we fail to notice.
    It happens. Mixed messages.
    It becomes routine.
    The everyday ambiguity
    is ominous. Where is the
    clarity we once expected? Who
    has time to define
    what they mean, when we
    obviously do not comprehend the
    questions, let alone an answer.
    We cannot think clearly,
    if they do not speak clearly.

  • your own thoughts

    your thoughts change
              different thoughts
                   varied thought
         minute to hour
                             day by day
               your own thoughts
               your own way
               you own your thoughts
               your thoughts can change
                                    or change you
                 change your thoughts
                 change your mind
                 change your ways
                 change with time
                       take time for thought
                       change of thought
            sometimes a thought
                              is all you’ve got

  • know more

    Knowledge comes in many 
    forms. In seeking answers
    we often question the norm.
    Mindless trivia, useless facts,
    the kinds of stuff you simply
    have to ask about; all the little
    things you wonder and bigger 
    things that matter. You know
    you want to know more, you
    have to know. It’s curiosity.

  • haiku 4 you

    to see
    eye to eye

    effort = outcome

  • cloud songs

     Random thoughts on 
          a morning walk, 
    the day presenting itself and 
       its glorious ways. Before 
         the give and take decisions 
          we must make. 
    Concessions and compromise, 
         duties must be fulfilled.
       Who knows how long 
    this slight repose will last? 
                            Walk on.
