  • Poem: Bubbles

    Knife moving through water, swinging without abandon, slicing without progress, stability lost. Waves gaining speed, yearning to get away, yawning to rest soon, yellow arrives.

Knife moving through sand, uncharacteristic bubbles…

  • Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area

    The only wildlife I saw was stuffed and indoors.  I picked the right day to go there as it was warm outside.  There was a nice 13 miles scenic route you can drive.  I stopped at a few outlook areas and will definitely going to come back at a later time to explore the area. …

NOT GUILTY!  NOT GUILTY!  NOT GUILTY!  NOT GUILLLLTTTTYYYYY!  The most disturbing two words my ears heard. I asked with my broken heart and battered soul. The dagger still plunged into both. How could he…
