Tuesday
Wednesday, train is plowing across the platform, people scurrying across the stairs, up through the aisles, riding rushing this hour towards a desk, a chair, a phone, a never-ending universe within a screen. Only to turn around and ride home, to an empty chair, with a table and a universe emanating from a 35 inch screen. Thursdays are kind days to the younger folk, nights of dreams and dances filled with songs and drink. Fridays are pulsating and alarm clocks ringing, across town are littered with remnants, proof of the previous evening's revolting movements.
Tuesday, love is blowing in the wind, answers floating, gliding towards a destination preordained, destiny in a word. Raspberry apples, strawberry onions and a groomed gentlemen, wandering, wondering, lost. Wednesday, train is plowing across the platform, people scurrying across the stairs, up through the aisles, riding, rushing this hour towards a desk, a chair, a phone, a never-ending universe within a screen. Only to turn around and ride home, to an empty chair, with a table and a universe emanating from a 35 inch screen. Thursdays are kind days to the younger folk, nights of dreams and dances filled with songs and drink. Fridays are pulsating and alarm clocks ringing, across the town the streets are littered with remnants, proof of the previous evening’s revolting movements. A long jump and wiggle, called dancing. A soft song reminds one of the soft dance from a hundred years ago. When war stared down at 17 years old and death was knocking at the door with a letter and a flag. Saturday… Sunday… Monday. And open door, no welcome mat, just an open door, the sounds of laughter and an aroma of coffee. I am here, do you know who I am? A poem for a Tuesday, it feels like a Wednesday, a wish it were Saturday. I am in need of a smile and some currency, some love and some realization of some hopes and dreams. Read my words, I want you to read my words, the words reveal me more than my eyes can ever dare. Read me, see me, understand me. #tbt #givingtuesday #meghan #cybermonday #poemoftheday #photolabInstagram

For a friend Shadows and Ghosts You feel it when you leave. There is an inner burning sensation it's location is random or maybe not. The sensation starts off numb but soon it's aflame. As you walk it's felt in your stomach, swirling fires. It falls to your feet as each step is like a hammer banging, banging… You can sense it moving towards your eyes and dropping one by one into your conscience. Shadows and ghosts flying around, bouncing, like a hammer… The darkness creeps in and you realize it was that all along. Them two eyes squinting your way, thoughts of Satan disguised as a savior. There ain't no true angels in this world, son, so make it true, make it real and be your own angel. Love is a lifesaver for the ones casting it to the waters, love is a safety net thrown by the ones about to leap, love is what the lover is looking for not for what you yearn for.Empty streets at dawn, sun exploding in the sky towards the East, the birds awakening, the street lights are blinking, blinking, off. You walk, you find yourself lost for direction. You want to pray but words don't do the job. Wandered off, from the street, towards the house lined roads, where the milk man delivers and the ice cream man stops, the sun always shines while the flowers erupt in colors never seen. You turn around, you have no right to be here as you hear her calling you back, the sounds of the hammer inside your head drown her calling out. You hear your given name and it's bouncing in time to the hammers pounding, pounding…lost. The possibility that somebody wants you, somebody cares is only a dream, you say. Cause, love is an emotion, love is just a song, love is for the needy, love is for the emotionally poor. Pounding over and over; like a heart beating, never truly in control; feeling out of control, off rhythm, off beat. Like a stray dog, an alley cat or a leaf on the ground, in the rain, stepped on and trampled upon - lost in shadows and ghosts. A lone figure is walking through the leaves, through the park on the west side of the city. A shadow of a moving figure slowly disappears from sight with a gust of wind. A gust of wind, dust blown, smoke rises from the lake.. http://ift.tt/1hbPRfX

Updates and Some Thoughts
My update here is to acknowledge that I have a problem and I am tackling it. Mental issues are hard because they can be intangible, untraceable to the blood tests or physical examinations. But I feel the pain as I walk and I remember another day, week, year, decade has past me by and I have yet to ascend as I had wished, hoped and dreamed of doing.

Tales from The F Train Five forty five, Tuesday, November 7th, 2017
Can anyone truly allow themselves the allowance of the painful healing powers of surrender? Some run around searching for connections, some drink or eat more than they should; some are abusive pouring out their pain onto others as if conquering the sadness by causing others to feel it for them, from them. Some just go through time with distractions…They keep the noise surrounding them at all times - people, music, television, smart phones, computers...open the windows and let the noise distract us. At night, as one lays in bed, intrusions of inner noises such as memories or embellishments of one’s history. Rationalizations for the decisions in our lives we choose to avoid regretting or taking responsibility for. “It all happens for the best,” or the ultimate shirking of responsibility - “God is in control.” We close the door to those intruders whose aim is to disturb us from our dreams; so we close our eyes tightly and we force ourselves to be someone else, somewhere else…We sleep to dream and awake to the alarming sound that the time to dream has past.

My brother, @czalta chose me as his date tonight to see #Springsteen on Broadway. An experience I will not soon forget. @springsteen is not only articulate, personable, intelligent and talented. He possesses a sense of sincerity in all he says, plays and sings. Thanks buddy for this evening. #boss #Bruce #pattyInstagram

@let_my_people_know FYI, neither Baghdad nor Tehran recognize Israel, or its right to exist. They also rejected our offers many times in the past saying they would accept aid from all countries except the Zionist regime, Israel. Here’s what @b.netanyahu said: “Our quarrel is only with the tyrannical regime that holds them hostage and threatens our destruction. But our humanity is greater than their hatred. Israel continues to be a light unto the nations and this is what I am proud of. And all of you can be proud of Israel’s morals, and Israel’s might.” (Source: @timesofisrael and @thejerusalem_post) #WereOnAnotherLevelInstagram

When you feel graduation was only 10 or 20 years ago and are shocked to realize it was over 50 years. Too many faces come and gone, lives shared and embellished, shined and polished... So the memories take on new beauty that we once hoped would've been. We distort, romanticize those scenes from the street fairs and park picnics, so there is no rain. Congregating here on this brisk fall day in the Autumn of our years to remember... #oceanparkway #brooklyn #filtered #life #picoftheday #thoughtofthedayInstagram

Look into the eyes of the ones you love and see universes bursting with life and all the stuff it's made up of. There is freedom and beautiful within each of us. There is so much we can never comprehend, so take it all in, take it all in, take it all in #picoftheday #photooftheday #friday #freddyzalta.com #loveInstagram

A walk towards your destinations sometimes requires a detour, a vacation, a dive into your past. A swing, a park, a memory of playgrounds and Autumn days when the world was much smaller, simpler and safer. So you place your bag on the floor, you lean into the seat hanging by two chains and you let go, you let go... #Autumn #November #past #Thursday #pictureoftheday #blackandwhiteInstagram

Forever a Stranger or Ramblings from a Disgruntled Dreamer
"I picture God looking like the weatherman on Eyewitness News, Tex Antoine." "You picture our Lord, our heavenly Father as a weatherman?" The Rabbi, standing over six feet tall and looking down on me as I sat at my desk. "Yeah. He always knows how the weather is going to be. Only God knows the future, right?" "How dare you." "What?" "You compare Hashem with an actor? A weatherman?" "Is that wrong?"
It was one of those school nights where you dream of getting home to warm soup and the glow of the tube. The whisperings of the radiator blowing out the heat, fogging the windows with ice and frost. Childhood dreams of freedom have turned to thoughts of childhood dreams. #home #picoftheday #poemofthedayInstagram

please hold me a little longer tonight. please give me an extra kiss. please let me look into your eyes a little longer, look into my eyes a little longer tonight. In my arms I can keep you safe from harm. please look into my eyes and listen to my voice - there are no reasons, no clear understandings only now and the love we share. there are no answers and no rational excuses for this world we have been thrust into - no safety nets, no promises of tomorrow - no safety from pain no safety from sorrow. so... please love me a little stronger tonight... please know that I am forever in your heart and in your soul. please live a little stronger and ingest the fleeting moments of joy, of love. pull up the shades, let the sun inside, open the windows, taste the brisk air and listen to the birds in the morning... please hold me a little tighter tonight, in your embrace I am safe from the universe. please let me hold you a little tighter tonight, in my embrace I will never let you go.
