You charming little notch in the windowsill
How many mornings have you captured
Have you heard our madness
Im ashamed
I promise we’re not that way
Love is our language
We’re working on it

As the son of a lightkeeper I find a lot of myself both protected from the wave and one with it, we kids would follow the tide as it shown us some path to new sands. I leapt into world half foot and half fin, I’m glad your here to share this light.

Nice. As always (as I remember), your words are so descriptive and build the image in our minds-eye so that we are not only reading your words but seeing them too. I still like your writing friend.

I think I would have enjoyed the solitary nature of the old lighthouse keepers back in the day. Now, of course, it’s all electronically managed and the lighthouse keepers are but a distant memory.

there are bodies and cadavers and hopes and and dreams alike. There are we here, the treetop shadows, the winds and whispers that hope you continue, that live for story. Don’t fall prey to the age of celebrity, there are plenty here, some a little more verbose than others

Reminds me of a healing exercise where you are supposed to write it all out (pen & paper)….pour your heart out.
Go outside ideally on a full moon….and burn those sheets of paper. Releasing those words to the universe.

Do you ever watch shows, or videos from a few years back
and think to yourself, “where is your mask?! go put it on”
and wish you could go back and hope and hope and hope
and lying to yourself say that […]

Yes….I sometimes look forward to finding movies from the 70’s to watch. I don’t exactly know why….I wasn’t even a teenager in the 70’s. And no…I don’t even think about mask if I am into a good movie.
As for the rest of the write……… sigh.

Where can we go when all options fail
To those comfortable normals
Those shows, those albums, those cozy dens of degenerates
And why would we stay there?!
Is it better than the life we live […]

So many moods to explore

Like you can’t forget yesterday

While I agree it’s a shame that people are finding themselves in this position, if I had those same risks, you bet 150miles wouldn’t keep me away. I’ve driven further for much much less. I hope you find this vaccine soon.
