exhale

inhale

feel it
through your veins

each breath
we take
is

a
new opportunity

inhale

in a moment

another chance
gone as

another chance

arrives

exhale

again

feel it

alive

a decade of days…

2025 is an anthology of thoughts du jour, unsolicited advice, messages of peace, philosophy, poetry, and photographs from the past decade of Mythos & Marginalia. In unchronological order, the years not as important as the dates, each post a reminder (if only to myself) that I do indeed write every damn day.

cloud songs

Searching for reasons.
      Why?
             When?
It is not finding the time,
    but finding
        the space. Physically,
emotionally beyond a trace
of the humanity you know
is there and has been
all along.
       Still you search.

an understanding

Art does not need to be understood as much as it needs to be created. For the moment art is conceived, captured, or undertaken, there is more than an understanding. There is a will.

Creation, in any form or media, demonstrates ideals and vision, its satisfies curiosity and proves a worth greater than any material possession.

Without question, art stands on its own. The statement it makes — however elementary or complex — does not need to be appreciated as much as it simply needs to be.

Art is like breath, it happens organically and is required for life to continue moving forward.

fractured reality

when will you look
or when will you see
the eyes looking back
belong only to thee

how can you know
everything you see
decisions of the future
are not what they seem

what have you noticed
and what does it mean
is our fractured reality
caught up in a scheme

self-expression

Verbally or non-verbally, regardless of method, media or motivation, expression or self-expression is an important component of who you are and how you react to and interact with the world surrounding you.
There are many ways of giving notice or getting noticed.
It matters not how you express yourself, only that you do.

a little further

What do you understand?

What do you struggle with?

What are you capable of?

What will you accomplish today?

What will happen if you
you reach a little further?
