OK, correct me if I am wrong… Hear me out. So, let’s assume for the sake of this post, that I am a sad, deranged and angry person with likely real sociopathic mental health challenges. In the rising pitch of the noise in my own head, I decide to commit suicide by cop and takeContinue reading “Sociopaths Are Not Terrorists Till We Declare them Thus”

The ancient hole…
There’s a hole in my soul so deep and old, I had forgotten that I never did fill it. Like an old war wound, with my coming age, it hearkens me back to days gone by and battles won and lost. Youth and years have flown and left me here now with what I haveContinue reading “The ancient hole…”
Rest Well Harambe. We’re all very sorry…
Yesterday, I reacted passionately, without appropriate background and took an emotional position in social media on the unfortunate death of Harambe, the Silverback that was dispatched by the Cincinnati Zoo to safeguard the life of the four year old child who fell into the animal’s enclosure. I am sickened by what occurred, but I did notContinue reading “Rest Well Harambe. We’re all very sorry…”
Prayerfulness
Prayer is not and should never be a prescribed or wrote set of words one utters to beseech wants or needs, but rather a presence one enters into with thanksgiving to be refreshed.
For God’s Sake…No, For Our Sake, Lead!
Most of us are just trying to find our fair share of the American dream, but it seems to be getting harder and harder. Too many of us live paycheck to paycheck and never have a chance to truly rise up and dream… Twice in the last century, our country has been bloodied but unbowedContinue reading “For God’s Sake…No, For Our Sake, Lead!”
Minus Hodie Lux
We are underneath that pall with you today Like the great grey scarf the sky pulls round its neck We earthen vessels gather in this place And look now upon the broken jar that days ago was you. Our fears and prayers like smoke from the thurible rise We plead to Him and to each otherContinue reading “Minus Hodie Lux”
Pluralism — ‘plo͝orəˌlizəm/…
As we Christians approach The solemnities of The Nativity of the Lord and Epiphany, we have to remember what we fundamentally believe and why… Pluralism and the freedom to worship as one sees fit; these, above all else were the fundamental principles of the founding Fathers and America; the single most essential concepts that drove Continue reading “Pluralism — ‘plo͝orəˌlizəm/…”
What I know now…
Sitting here in the last few hours of my 55th year, here’s what I know now that maybe I didn’t a year ago… (1) I may never make everyone happy, but I have a real knack for piss’n everyone off. (2) I’m not the man I once was, so there’s still a chance I mightContinue reading “What I know now…”
They Served…
Here is one of the first pictures taken of my mother and father as a couple along with one of the last… They both served. In fact they met while serving and the result was 14 children (6 of which also served — one of whom never returned) and a forty-seven year marriage. They wereContinue reading “They Served…”
“Lord have mercy on us.”
In her severely abbreviated life Bella loved cats, dancing to country music and the color green. That’s what we know about what she loved; just three scraps of joy in a life marked by neglect and abuse at the hands of horrible morons… And then, an even more horrifying end. Look at this face andContinue reading ““Lord have mercy on us.””
