hell is here when you
are not. I am tortured in
your absence. Come back.

we make our own. Hell
be known even in sunlight.
Sprouts from seeds of lies.

No heaven without
hell. No rose without its thorns.
No life without death.

Bless me Father for
I have sinned. Will confession
save my soul again?

Mea culpa all
you wanta. Confession might
forgive. Not forget.

Don't be too quick to
judge others' tribulations.
It's almost your turn.

I don't want to know
what Hell is like. I've got dibs
on Purgatory.

When you get there, call
me so I'll know what to pack.
Might need to shop first.

Hell would be being
made to listen to disco
all day, every day.

Sippican Cottage...

I don't remember how I came across his blog.
It doesn't matter.

He is writing a story, perhaps a book, called
'Some Enchanted Place'.
Please click on the link and go read. I promise
you will be among the enchanted.
He's already posted five parts as I post this so
you have a bit of catching up to do.

Jayzus, this man is good.

Not to mention... he also makes furniture.
Beautiful furniture.

Go read. Go look.

and, speaking of even more talent...

Make sure you take time to read at Lt. Mike's blog
Rescuing Providence. He's already had a book published.
But, guess what? It's going to be made into a MOVIE!

oh, yeah. I be hangin' wit de big boyz.

Brain disengaged...

transmission slipped.
threads stripped.
lids flipped.
well is dry.
no fish to fry.
out of tune.
crazy loon.
cork screwed.
jammed not jellied.
stifled.
snuffed.
and more than miffed.

Notice how comfortable we are together?...

Probably because we had good sex.

Ha! *snort*

Oh. Wait. That wasn't you?




ya'll have a good weekend and love the one you're with.

******************* FALL ******************

UPDATE: VOTE! PLEASE. VOTE! PLEASE. VOTE!


My favorite time
to be alive. Crisp breezes.
Brilliant colored leaves.

pumpkin pyramids.
scarecrows in Sunday finest.
woodsmoke spices air.

Orange harvest moon.
Marshmallows crisp and melting.
Spicey cider brew.
