There you are, hidden in the magic. The mystery of personhood waiting to evolve. Wishing to be found, but stuck deep within. Fear shutters the essence of being so much of the time. It… More

Exceptional
Glorious bronze sight.
My hungry mind’s fantasy.

Irreverance
Smoldering
The unaddressed haunts the vitality of the future.
A boiling, hot mess of resentment seething right below the surface.

Lady Luck presents a life-altering prospect.
An enticing, not so subtle invitation.
A seductive and alluring treat.
Or a delicious deception?
Like a meet-your-maker kind of wile.
I want to get wet, and I think I might drown.
Teased by lousy timing yet it keeps me invested.
My head fills with rich fantasies, more possibilities awaken.
The proverbial juices are flowing.
The world is spinning on a new axis.
I’m confused.
But I’m open.
