Healing Reality
Healing Reality Nowhere in Two Places. Well, it’s out in paperback. I am working on new material. I do hear a voice in my head saying work harder. But then again I see bands cashing in on the 50th anniversary of this or that, releasing a box set of singles, with photographs, blah etc. blah. … Continue reading Healing Reality
Time
Time “He flexes like a whore” Not sure why that particular description and Bowie lyric and song flashed into my mind, but there it is.

Holiday Season
Holiday Season And here it is. Food and decorations and candles and things. Memories. Sadness. When there is so much to say there is nothing to say. It’s very quiet here, neighbors gone away. One family across the street had a son and daughter-in-law and baby arrive yesterday for a visit. The mother stood by … Continue reading Holiday Season
End of Winter, Ostara, Spring Equinox
Otherwise known as the new season of spring. Here it is, the first day of spring. The Equinox. The halfway point between there and there, winter and summer, cold and hot, light and dark. It looks nice out. We are supposed to feel happy. They say it is important to get outside. That’s probably true. … Continue reading End of Winter, Ostara, Spring Equinox
