When you are capable of so much at your best

That you can't live with yourself during the rest

You will need to find a more sustainable harmony

That leads to a practical compounding progress

To eventually master your ability in a euphoric flow state

Fighting Intellect and Will against internal forces you have grown atuned to.

This is the new reality, beginning anew with a consequential meaning....

Was there any thought

To the ticket I bought?

Or deluding retrospection

That enables my condition.

Either my life or wife will leave

If I’m forced to conceive

A missed bet this big

Falls on its head....

Some time ago this garden became a forest. The overgrown tulips befriended the wildflowers. Now some small white faces of an unknown species with a bright yellow center are caught peaking beneath rugged triangular leaves of vines that cover it all.

The keeper roams the area somewhere nearby. What was once manicured tending to sections has become careful corrections to overgrowth ever since the e...

The space between the stars holds endless possibility, opportunity and doom. Why stay on this small orb revolving around someone else’s sun? Why not kindle your own solar system? You know it is not this sun’s gravity that holds you back. It is the dark cold mixed with hastily erratic explosions that you must conquer to establish that new constellation. Like drowning in endless crashing waves and l...

No one will blame you

You can relax now

We can’t control these things

That’s just the way life goes

You’ve done great digging yourself out

Reward yourself: this is stable

You’re lucky to fall back on this

You should really stick with this - it’s safe

No.

You just don’t have vision.

Maybe you just were not cut out for this

Not everyone can make it happen

No.

There’s no one better equipped than...

It was a dreamscape of world stuck between futurist utopia and anarchical chaos. The lows are low, and the highs. -wherever they are- must be beyond our wildest dreams.

My bodyless awareness follows a young man on errands: picking up a widget in an antique shop, collecting a Mother’s Day card, skyrailing to the edge of the sprawling city. He has a wrestling patch on his bag. While he sits, igno...

I just failed a business and everything is on credit cards. Yes, I’ll take a paycheck for a little while to get out of debt. And yes, if I didn’t leave my career to learn and start business ventures, I would have an extra quarter million in my bank.

Despite my explicit mistakes, I wouldn’t change anything because I am so much more afraid of normalcy. Ambition might have been dampened in my heart...

The forest enchantress of predominately noble intentions lets her powers overrun her during nights like these. The moon is high and any poor souls caught out of place could be in for the worst night of their lives.

The enchantress prepares to dawn her flowing red cape at the pinnacle of her strength. Alas, this power overtakes her and sees her most vulnerable moments of internal torment. Yet... ...

When dreams buckle beneath their weight

And it’s time to move forward,

Realism tells one greatness will have to wait.

When force’d to neglect Momentum’s bell

In a drawn-out Sofie’s choice

To simply allow the past to crumbell,

When I admit breakeven will take a while,

Resaddling my neglected horse

Exacts a humility I cannot reconcile.

I am a new animal

Wiser than before

This time primal.

L...

I have an impressive imagination. I put it to great use to manifest the most majestic fantastical realities for people. Limping Lenny can now leap castle walls, the Bristeltoe orphanage is kept by talking woodland creatures - now placing kids in homes more effectively than ever before. But this wonderful life has quickly become a nightmare when I recently discovered my blessings to the kindest peo...
