Collects vinyl yet unable to find the time to listen.
Time wandered on as if we were not there
Behind the door, waiting for the buzzer
The mechanism which would unlock, let us free
Yet, time continued, digital figures danced
Second by second, minutes dragged.
Nothing changed at all.

When she walks into the room
All my senses come alive.
Like a predator I observe her
Stalking stealthily my prey.
My urges held closely in check
Yet, my love for her excites
And the #piranha in me strikes.
My heart insists on her essence
For only she is the stuff of life.

There was time, before,
For quiet contemplation,
For planning, thinking before doing.
No more, just reacting.
#Fatigue is now our enemy,
The one thing that defeat us.
Backs bent, arms dragging,
We enter the fight reeling
Knowing we can lose
Not that we could win.
It is not enough.

Tapping down the campfire
As we clear up the site
Packing up for home
After this weekend away.
Such lovely nights spent
Just the two of us alone.
Leaving stress in the city.
Now, to make sure the #ash
Is cold, no reason to ignore.
We will return here someday
When life gets to be too much.

I volunteered for it
I served it as I served veterans
I was born and raised in it
Loving it as I was told
I sang its praises every school morning
I prayed for it enmass.
And now it is unrecognizable
My country broken, dieing.
A #conundrum loving it still.

I, as an atheist, would accept the Rapture just to get the fuck out of here.

Blue telling me he wants dinner.
What I felt as perfect love
Left me soulless, empty.
The #flinching I ignored for so long
Was a truth seeking recognition.
I was wrong in what I felt was true
Only a brief interlude between lust
And whatever lies I told myself.
When is it right to feel vulnerable
If love isn't the cure?

I spent the morning
Fishing for salmon on the Sound
With brothers who have guided and guarded,
Fought and forgave,
For all of my life.
Simple pleasures on a calm sea
Talking of nothing, everything
Past, present, living, and dead
Laughing and crying,
For all that has passed.

This is truth.
He stacks the courts with his friends,
Orders his minions to vote
And fill the seats with sycophants,
Terrorizes the press to stay silent,
Bullies the resistors into shelter,
All to #elude the hangman's noose
Over his less than stellar life
So mommy and daddy will be proud
Finally.

Choose 20 paintings that have stayed with you or influenced you — one painting per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just paintings.
