LAST NIGHT... when it was dark, I ventured downstairs to the hot tub and I lay submerged in those relaxing hot waters, I looked skyward upon the sky filled with stars of all shapes and sizes whose light I was seeing was at least 8 minutes old... and I wondered while relaxing if I would ever connect with its cosmic consciousness... and thought...
my heart beats stereophonic rhythms in my ears
when my head lays back upon the porcelain,
my body remains submerged and languishing
in the one hundred and three degree temperatures...
It was almost immediately that these 4 lines appeared in my head while staring up at the sky and wondering if I was ever going to make contact with some ancient alien... and then, a flash of insight ran its course through my body and when it appeared at the top of me, an idea quickly formulated and simply but without a doubt knew what had to be done.
Currently, I maintain 4 blogs:
- one for poetry new and old
- one for my daily journal entries so to speak
- one for my ongoing cancer issues
- one for my paranoid schizophrenia (I only wish but I am still just bipolar)
My writings now contain the following as well:
- 42,000 poems previously written
- poetry occasionally written in notebooks
- previously written opinion articles published on LinkedIn
- two and one half novel written (300 pages each) out of 12 outlined
MY INSIGHT... I will continue writing daily just as I have always done, but now my life's purpose is to type up and publish all of my writing on one of these 4 blogs until I have nothing left to publish other than what I am currently writing.
RETIRED... I have been retired now, going on my 7th year, without any hobbies of which to speak or desire to play tennis or golf or sit upon the couch eating popcorn watching foolish professional compete for millions of dollars worth of salary, only to destroy their God given bodies. For a good five years I have floundered, not really knowing what to do... and, it was right in front of me all the time... and, I would be dead today if it has been a poisonous snake.
