You run out of breath

You see, there is this vortex… The old tale of selling one's soul… It happens every day. I know I have a soul but sometimes I feel I must've lost it in the flood, it went floating in a spin, down the drain, where people with false smiles and goods to sell, wear bright and shiny suits and say what is needed to say.

True inner Freedom

True personal freedom is the ultimate goal - can you imagine yourself being truly free? It's not as simple as you think. True personal freedom can be as elusive as choosing the winning lottery numbers. It's not as simple as reading that book or taking that pill - although they are part of the process; it takes a lot of introspection and honest assessments of yourself in order to have a glimpse of just who it is you truly are. This can be painful.

Dream Come True

These past years have been financially and mentally exhausting - fodder for my stories is the reason I feel I have been thrust through the tunnel of failure over and over.  I walk into the restaurant and I catch a glimpse of her smiling. Nothing as beautiful to me in the world than her smile. 

Another Life and Time

"Where, when, how?" I ask. "I don't know, but here we are. I was watching you walk, babe, and you don't look like the Freddy I remember." "I am not the Freddy you remember. People have all turned out to be false gods prayed to by the lost. Pretense and self promotion is all the rage these days." "I know I see your posts." "Thats all done in jest - but its a platform for me to express myself."
