    Of course, time passes and then it's gone. Let's say that with emphasis, "Time passes and then it's gone!!"

    Manifestation is important because you can spend years dreaming and wake up one day, like Rip Van Winkle, and realize your life has been used up on dreams rather than action.

    That's the importance of manifestation. Dream, but don't dream without action.

    That's my thought. Time is your life!

    true true true. :)

    that time you spent dreaming could be used to organise/get into gear whatever you are dreaming about. the first step to fruition is the hardest... but once you take it theres no going back... as i read once on a billboard.... JUST DO IT! ;):) lol

    An ode to the C.fu R. A.
    lovingly titled
    Choke on it Taxman.

    How to evade the Royal tax charade
    its a slippery sheet, federal ice caPaid
    An annual ritual for the surfs in spring
    like the flu shot in fall, its gonna sting

    NOTICE OF RE-ASSESMENT!
    we have questions about lines 10, 11 and 16
    how dare you think these deductions an entitlement
    We'll get to the bottom of this, like your severed head of our guillotine.

    no where to run, can't hit the road and hide
    Wife, kids and up to my ears in debt!
    they know they got me, no choice but to abide
    I'm shackled to money, a slave like ALL the rest

    but the cupboards are bare, be reasonable I plead

    Reason will cost surf, penalties, fines and interest all the time.
    shit, they conjure their due,
    with a shtick' as old as the hills
    And the power of God, in thy parliamentary bills.....


    Happy tax season fellow peons!

    here is an instant thought.
    join the zeitgeist movement, lets bring an end to this shit!

    In joyous part

    Tis the season . Hohoho.
    I remember when, yeah. I swore I knew everything, oh yeah.

    So close

    I didn't know

    how close

    But you let me know 

    How well you knew 

    About everything  

    How mind blowing 

    It is

    impossible to grasp

    to understand 

    Sometimes I forget 

    I must admit 

    Despite all you've done

    This looks like the place for random thoughts, so here I go.

    I am heading to Taormina next month to see the two EV solo shows. My husband and I just separated after 10 years together. So I am traveling alone this time around.  It will be the first time I've traveled this far from home, alone, for this length of time. And, well, I'm sick about it.  My friends tell me that, of course I should go. That i'm crazy to think of canceling; that it will be a healing experience...as though I'm the fucking Julia Roberts character in Eat, Pray, Love or something.

    Each day of this new singular life (It's been a month now) is a maelstrom of negative emotions. I wake most mornings with a slow churning tornado in my chest wondering if I can get through the day without breaking down on the street, at work, or in the middle of spin class (all have occurred). "You'll feel different soon," they tell me. "It will get better, I promise." I don't believe them. I miss my husband terribly, and my heart is broken.

    Truthfully, I have had a difficult time listening to Pearl Jam since we parted. Pearl Jam's music held us together when we were trying (unsuccessfully) to have a family together for so many years. Ultimately, that is what killed us in the end. The loss of something that never was, and never could be.  An invisible loss that has no place to be mourned in society. The pain between us became too great, and we bailed. Each in our own way. Eddie's Ukulele songs album is particularly painful to listen to right now because I feel like I'm living in those songs, each and every one of them.  All that said, I'm getting on that plane in June and I'm going. As I write this, and I think of the stars in the sky that will be falling down on all of us in that open air Greco-Roman theatre in Taormina, I can feel hope. 

    Thanks for letting me share. Peace to all.

    think i passed me yesterday night

    it was hilly grass

    trees roamed the sky like they do in reaching

    i was right there

    a spark lit

    a spark that did not


    you would not in searching understand

    says these things to myself

    (not) everything denied breeze of summer

    decaying my walk (maybe) 

    where anticipation camps out


    across the morning that opens up in dancing canopies, green & blue each inch scattering about 

    a forest

    rabbit chase rabbit fun

    a couple sunbeams enthralled their new day's playground

    their first few breaths on dewy lit webs

    my old bones taking it in


    peanuts flicked

    a gray squirrel

    peanuts flicked a gray squirrel

    you could hear the (mayor of) woodpecker (town)

    his morning beak of stone drilling

    you would swear a perfect cup of coffee was not ever

    fire pit has been going again now about an hour or so

    it is on the low

    smoking away in niceness filling branched leafs & sun-shots with something ancient


    peaceful

    troubled

    Yesterday I had to have root canal surgery.  I learned a lot from the experience. I wrote something called "root canal wisdom" but it's too yecky to put up.  It just means something to me.

    The gist of it is that the pain I've been living with and trying to ignore for months was very quickly removed. What a relief!  (And thank god I have healthcare!)

    Good music is still a helpful recovery tool too.

    One day hope arrived 

    I couldn’t quite figure out

    why

    For some reason it was felt

    I guess 

    Based on some realization 

    Some thoughts of positive substance 

    Anyway I’m grateful 

    Thank you hope

    I wonder if El Presidente  will do some more destruction this week and kill NAFTA.  And only mere weeks away from his impending impeachment pie.
    Hmm. 

    Hey Trump
    Don't turn and dump
    On our plate

    You are deranged 
    Insaned 
    And needing a clue

    Some thanks are in order
    For the expose
    Of the greedy disorder

    That America is today.

    Those Moby-Dick scholars are wrong. The Whale isn't an Other beyond Olson's concept of manifest, destinal space. It isn't even a slither of Ahab's Id. It's photons bouncing back. It's America's mirror, revealed
