A True Optimist
Is not only hoping for miracles
But is out here taking damage
While trying to create dreams
And crying as they fall ravaged
(Spooky – Atlantic Rhythm Section)
Down Time
*What am I doing?
Scrambling for survival, per usual.”

“Elements”
Dear Alex,
“I did it…
I brought us all full circle.
The kids are grown, successfully.
I provided for them and our animals.
People helped along the way, but I held the line – I held onto the vision and the memory.
Forgive me when I collapse, exhausted and empty.”
(Here Is The House – Depeche Mode)
Here In This House
A near replica of the one where
We were crowded by addiction
But now there’s yard space flex
And neighbors’ sane community
Dear Friend,
“Give them what they came for.
I believe in you.”
