~Faced With Slings and Arrows~
I have thick skin
From head to foot
Except
Over my heart
So sometimes
I need to curl up
Into a ball
To protect myself

From the #vss365 jukebox, this is an amazing performance of Many Rivers to Cross by the legend Jimmy Cliff who just died of pneumonia. If you love reggae or just music, there were few people more #relevant. Rest in peace Jimmy. You already are missed.

A man who insults a woman by pointing a finger at her and calling her "piggy" in public when the entire world is watching is probably a total gentleman with woman in private and totally not a pedophile.

America is like my favorite t-shirt I’ve had for years, the one I thought was so cool back in the day but now looks pretty shabby and kind of embarrassing

When I was a kid, the local pool not only had diving boards, but it had something called the “high dive.” It was like sending your kids up the side of a two-story building to jump into the water. What could go wrong?

Sunset in the Caribbean. The bald head of the blazing sun retreats behind an island promontory, as the humid ocean-fed wind berates us.

~the old watering hole~
so much has been lost
because it never existed
it only seemed real
in the suspended animation
of youth and innocence
the surface of the water
reflected our hopes
hid our fears away
as we fed the brown ducks
our pure white bread
