greetings, friends:.
wishing you well today.
below is a story that came to mind as i lay awake, contemplating the new day.
Thanks, rip, for the link!
I was an avid fan of TTZ, but I don't remember that one. Strange -- I believe it was an old wingback chair I was offered that indirectly inspired me. Or the name Fred . . . wish I could remember as I had just gotten out of bed and began writing away.
I've been having trouble lately with formatting, especially cut/paste.
See you later.

there's a photo of shasta lake near where i live -- it's very sad now to see how low the lake is.
and governor brown is being really wimpy about it, suggesting we not flush our toilets as often as usual.
Thanks, Riley, for that information. Scary.

Dear flamegrilled:
How kind you are to attach worth to what has been written. I am very grateful that you have explained why you enjoy these vignettes. With the time that remains, I want to dig deep down, draw up the innermost from heart and mind and, then, put pen to paper.
You've given me renewed incentive to continue.
Yes, we all miss Leolaia very much -- she is a universal treasure.
Love and peace.

Thanks, rip and Nancy, for sharing such intriguing thoughts.
There are so many possibilities regarding what occurs beyond our finite senses. Does any of this unseen and unknown actually proceed beyond our vivid imaginations into an invisible but viable world, a world that awaits us once we've gone from the physical into an as-of-yet undisclosed state?
We speculate while we live our daily lives . . .
Regards.

this tired, lonely man has been snared, but i protest little .
she holds me tenderly in her tightening but welcome thrall.
i cave willingly -- oh, so willingly -- to her amatory attentions.
Hi rip:
Thanks for great questions on your penultimate post -- thinking them over . . .
Ultimate post re: the cage -- it just came to me as a twist ending. Whom is the narrator addressing?
His bird?
His dog?
His mate?
I dunno!

i have reached a frontier dreamt about as a child -- the outer reaches of a vast realm under stars.. though an imaginative and inquisitive lad, my forward-looking mind and open heart could never have conjured up this fabulous, this infinite unreality into which i have been catapulted.
what may appear a distortion of my former reality i tentatively accept as a cosmic tableau that threatens both to fascinate and crush my frail, puny body and spirit.
i am unable to comprehend what i gaze upon with frightened, delicious terror.. my recent escape from lunaria was of sheer necessity: my people have been overtaken by a scorpion race of alien malefactors whose intent toward us was not one of beneficient intervention but that of conquest.
You, rip, are more the one in tune than I!

i seem to have a really crap couple of months with stuff going wrong.
people being nasty to me.
i saw a neighbour of mine today (who i fell out with 18 months ago), to whom i've since apologised for losing my temper with, but today, when i smiled at her, she looked at me daggers!!!
I hope you're doing better now, quelly, what with the fine encouragement you've been offered.
Once an employer scolded me afterwards for the face I supposedly had made while we were both attending to a customer. He thought I was scowling at what he had been saying. I said no, I had been having stomach cramps all day, and at that particular moment I had been hit hard in the gut. He understood.
We all have periods where it seems never to get better, but, as noted, getting out, being with cheerful people, etc., will brighten your mood instantly. I live alone and go for a walk when I'm down. I always meet up with a neighbor and start cheering up the moment we begin shooting the breeze.
Blessings and peace.
