Toward the Faraway
I travel incognito, using a name I once found in a book of minor sorrows. I have a longing for the sea, yet languish here behind the wheel of a rental, crisscrossing arid lands with many miles ahead. A white plastic bag flaps on a thorn bush it could act as a windsock but turns listlessly in the breathless air. A GPS guides...

Premium Member Feelngs toward Winter

Premium Member Pivoting toward the light
When things are turning dark, try pivoting toward the light. Nothing grandiose-no great secrets revealed Just a simple pivot of the wayward mind until the shine comes back into view. Like the bow of an oft battered rose weaving its way through icy storms... try and follow the sextant of the soul. Darkness is necessary to expose the blight but darkness is...
