I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

Month: June 2020
Each postcard tells a story, as brief as it may be.
The limited writing space and photograph of a thing of place, with just enough news to show you were there.
Send me a postcard from home.
Tell me something about where you live; a little-known fact, something significant or another thing you think somebody needs to know. Perhaps a poem, limerick, or haiku; tell me what home means to you.
Don’t just send a card; send a message.
The oostcards will be used in October during homecoming month at mythosandmarginalia.com
During October, contributing writers will offer impressions of home, where it is and what it means to them.
Postcards From Afar is intended to add a global perspective and make this planet a little smaller, and a little closer.
I’d like to hear what home means to you.
For coordinates and further information on the postcard project, email

I will write back

We, generally, question ourselves daily, but more specifically on days like today or the one before, or a few weeks before that.
The resounding questions of why are overwhelming and obvious.
Sadly the solution is not.
It seems so insane to say we have ot have greater faith in humankind when the tragedies we see and feel are neither kinda nor humane.
But what else have we got if we don’t have faith?
It becomes harder and harder to have faith in the self, in the system, in spirituality or religion, but we must.
Now is the time to be strong; questioning our faith will only make us weaker.

Understanding takes effort
There is no need to repeat what I’ve said
information is available
independent of whether you
choose to believe
This is not a new idea nor
difficult to understand
Even the skeptics have access to
the information available
there must be willingness to listen
before information becomes more
believable I have said this all along
