Do your thing little Birdy! I dig what you’re putting down.
Homage
It was just a walk by, but my side eye caught a glance, Of my silken silouhette, dancing pirouette, broom in hand. From this angle, line of sight, Reflection mirrored in new light. These curves and these dimples, how they shined and glistened. Like the floors I’d been sweeping And the tubs I’d been scrubbing. […]
It’s Not You

I love you, always and forever!
Discography: Genesis
The First in a series, tying music to memories; the music that is more than just a song to me, but a piece of my soul.
Persefail
Sometimes it’s better to persefail than to keep fighting for perseverance.

The Hole Truth
Life imitates art and life isn’t always pretty. I don’t get to take too much credit for creativity on this one; the beginning a terrible memory and the end an all too real possibility.
Abandon Ashes

So This Is It
Years of running, one broken down door to the next. One thousand, five thousand, ten thousand dollars paid to end my life. Sometimes it was only a quarter ounce, a dime bag, a line. My life clearly not worth much, not to thee, or me, or even police Used as bait and tossed aside, with […]
Trust The Fall
I have suffered immeasurable losses. Sure, my losses can be quantified; their ratios rationalized to juxtapose the impressions left as scars. But the mass that weighs on my soul can not be scaled or justified. Sometimes it feels like an endless battle, denied enough time to wipe the blood off our eyes before the bell rings. Perpetually caught […]
Lazy Parenting Tip #69
Parenting always starts with the best intentions. I’m going to limit screen time, spend quality time with my children every day, and cook homemade meals that are delicious and deceptively nutritious. Except there is just not enough time in the day and way too many shows to stream on Netflix. Myself, I am the queen of good intentions […]
Grass Charmer
You have to pull the grass out just so; and not just any piece of grass. It should be a fairly thick piece that is wider than your thumb, and longer too. The longest blades of grass should be left to complement the wind as it sings across the prairie; the smaller blades stay to […]
Wordsmith

Manifest Truth
Our scars are reminders of our strength, not the source of it. Refuse to be defined by the events that make life difficult!
Tinsel Town
Like a semi truck, the pull of Santa’s sleigh created a large wind drift pulling behind him. In the wake of his departure, a large windstorm brewed, stirring up the ground below. Kid’s plastic swimming pools, out of place in the frigid climate, frisbeed across the horizon. Garbage cans barreled through the streets, chasing each […]
A Minute
It took me a minute….. to deal with, process, grow, etc. I love this phrase, but to some people it sounds dumb; referring to a larger, quantitative, span of time as a minute. Understandably, it probably took a lot longer than 60 seconds. A minute of time is different than a minute in time. Has […]
Phoenix Falling: Intro
I sometimes think we leave this world almost the moment we have everything all figured out; the ultimate cosmic joke. This would be a reason why so many bright, amazing people leave us so early. Maybe also, when we die before we are ready, parts of us stay unable to leave this earthly world. I […]
Credit Karma
Credit Karma is a common sense explanation of the American economic system; including the hysterical history behind this most cherished commodity.

Fact #3
Fact #3 is a cautionary fact. Ignore at your own peril. When coming to a four way stop, the Right of Way Knowledge of any vehicle possessing a smashed front end should be questioned.
WordPress App Applications
Must Read! I never say that about my own work, so you should believe there is value to you as a blogger in here. I am very thankful to have had the ability to use the WordPress app over the last year. But I will not miss it for one second, the moment I can […]
Fact #2
I like him. I love him! He is the worst. Who? Let’s face it, our truth is not static. Facts change. Free The Truth is dedicated to challenging beliefs and being open to new insights. But I wouldn’t be doing my job if I didn’t question my own assertions. To challenge a flexible truth, here […]
