George Winston--'Where are you now?'-->www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7st1G…

Haven't had much time to much of anything on DA except fav & run lately. It seems as I get older the minutes of an hour, a day, a week, a month...year seem to accelerate. I sure don't seem to remember them passing. All I really seem to recall is a jumble of emotions that leave me confused, frustrated, not believing they are true.

Good times, bad times, O.K. times, terrible times all run together like everything left on a busy highway during a rainstorm. Maybe it's just getting older that does this. I don't know, but I caution against the aging process. (but, I cannot turn around)

I haven't picked up my camera in months. It's been a little liberating and a little scary. I hope whatever I had isn't gone. It may be and that is O.K. Mistakes...I will make them.

I've had lines running through my head the past few months. Stories, poetry, jumbled nonsense...sometimes I write it down, most times it disappears like a vapor as I'm fumbling for something to write on. Makes me think of a puff of breeze picking up a bit of sand, playing with it; making it dance and then dropping it. I suspect E.E. Cummings has something to do with it but that might be a bit pretentious since I have only read a few of his poems. (It's Stephen King-esque...you know)

Anyway, I know this is a bit cryptic. I'm not feeling myself and haven't for a long time. Maybe one day things will change to a more chipper tone and maybe I will get back into shooting again. I do have one shoot planned for the next day or two--the last that will feature Ol' Blue. (That miserable, plain vanilla, got-no-power-or-personality, new P.O.S. I'm being forced into will have to earn my respect. One of my bosses actually suggested I do a shoot featuring the new 2015 for a company calendar to which I laughed at...)

Anyway, Blue is going to go away to a place where trucks are beaten, abused, neglected and just plain trashed where she will die a slow, terrible death. (It may be a quick one what with the quality of drivers we get these days).

I'll sign off and leave you with a bunch of stuff to look at that I've been looking at the last few months. I think it's better than good. Maybe you will too. If you do, check out the deviants featured. If not, then don't :shrug: Maybe you'd like some music to go along with the features-->www.youtube.com/watch?v=IC6BeN…

Tranquility in the Mist by AnnaKirsten Devious Journal Entry
What do you do when you don't get better?
Strong arms get too get too weak to hold her.
Oh God give me just enough strength to make it through.

Sleepless, this madness is walking me out to the ledge
 and stands there beside me
shivering out on the edge.
Oh God all I all I ask is a little relief
Just a moment of peace.

I don't want to live without you.
I'm not ready to live without you.
So let's dance a little.
Laugh a little.
Hope a little more.
Cause I don't want to leave without you, without you.

This thorn in my side,
though it cuts and stings me
As opens these eyes
I never seen so clearly.
And oh God I thank you
Cause you bring me to my knees
Back on my knees.

I don't

ONE SUNNY FALL MORNINGI stop writing a poem to pray.
Poem words can wait.
On the way to the patio door
I leave a few verbs; the actions I need to walk outside.
Laying similes on the steps like a flower girl,
I look up and hang a string of pillowy metaphors by the cloud line.
I see the inside of my heart full, with the ones I love.
In my mind God is smiling.
I’ll get back to the poem later.
I’ll get back to being a woman.
But for now there are these little folded hands,
and somewhere a small girl
kneeling next to her mother
by the side of the bed.
Watching to see how its done.

My Windy Mind by altergromit A Half Pint of FigsWe had cornbread with dinner tonight.
I went to the pantry and got a half-pint jar of figs-
"FIGS 2013" scrawled across the top in your script.
I cut my square of cornbread
And spooned two small figs on each half-
The crop last year was small in volume and size.
And as I ate them I smiled and I cried
They were sweet and delicious
And I pictured the small trees
Next to the garage where you park the John Deere.
After dinner I rinsed out the jar,
Dried it and put it on the top shelf-
I probably put screws and nails
And buttons and dice in it.
When you are gone I will open it
To hang a picture-
And I will smile and cry again.

I want to plant black berries in my yard.
I want to stain my fingers and shirt and the pockets of my pants
Picking and eating them until my tongue is purple.
I want to hear her laugh at me
When I pretend I didn't eat as many as I picked
While she watched me through the window.

(this last was written to me by James :iconfrazzled-mage: in his response to my comment to him...I thought it too poetic not to share)

Jess...:tighthug: Get well, my friend.
