Normalcy
A way home. Doors and forests. Resting on a bench. Lurking. We are normal. I like to walk across mysterious bridges. I could go home anytime. Portals can take you anywhere. I want to go. We are normal. Normalcy. Typical. Portals. And time. And shimmering. On the way home, home, home… We are normal! We like to do...

So Many Seduced by Rhythmic Pendulum of Trauma and Absurd Normalcy
Intelligent musical talent begins with this, to relearn the timing within our soul, But other tactical psychological methods are busy swaying to and fro, To an obvious yet nefarious covert Rhythmic tyranny of Mind Control, Damaging trauma appears, disappears and reappears so often - irregardless whether anyone of us - really and actually know, Although - know; you ought...

I wake to the scrape of the kettle on the stove, the faint hiss of water finding its boil. The day begins not with purpose, but with the weightless drift of a leaf settling where it may. The streets are a quiet shuffle of feet, faces turning toward their...

During a period of despair and emptiness,  I used to peer into deep tunnels of pettiness.  Dark and dull hobgoblins gnawed at my heart, I've developed a strong sense of impart. Now, each one grasps what we are withholding, The term "long and narrow" is thrown around.  I am on a road, and yeah, it's long and winding,  However, this synopsis...

Some Semblance of Normalcy
…and now that I am retired I am getting more tired doing nothing— It’s more strenuous, One never knows when it begins and when it ends. Wife, still works, Kids, all grown up and gone. Now, the days are purposeless Nights, sleepless. Too much is going on in this beautiful world with some stupid people running amuck So, I sit by the TV and worry. At a...

Starve
I know what society wants me to do. And I know how to do it. I just don't want to do it. The normalcy that's been normal for so long starved my soul. And I am not starving it anymore....

Premium Member Prized Normalcy
Winter Solstice Placed earth On its path toward new spring Pray longer, sunny days lead to Brighter hopes Of rebirthing- Prized normalcy. Hugging family Meeting friends Breathing pure air without a mask Sitting at church to worship, pray Full classrooms Kids mingling- Prized normalcy. No anxieties Becoming ill Loving fine meals at a restaurant Happily going to our jobs on-site Attend theaters Sports events- Prized normalcy.

Shut Up
What allure is there in talking about people? What allure is there analyzing situation your not in? Who are you to decide what is right or wrong for someone else? Why is it normal to do this? Are you bored? Do something, shut up and do something. Or do nothing, just shut up. At least that's the battle I go...

On my deck I’m sitting to write this pleasant day. Nary a cloud I see to blot the clear blue sky. Yellow sun is smiling; the grey has gone away. Wind whooshes through the trees. Some bicyclists I spy. Distant traffic , barking dogs, and some kids at play: These sounds spell normalcy! Wind heaves another sigh. April 24, 2020 for...

Normalcy Is Non-Existent
We want the things we believe to be out there, Things that exist for others and not for ourselves. Well they aren’t and they don’t. We spend our time wanting to be “normal,” Yet, the more time one spends trying to achieve normalcy, The less like oneself one becomes. You are no longer you when your...
