Happy Veterans Day
I had my year breakfast burrito this morning and chatted with a few Vietnam Vets. They had interesting stories, one was in S4 the other a Navy man was off the coast. I remember my uncle today also a Vietnam man, a coreman on the JFK carrier he signed off on pilots going up in…
>Forest of My Mind<
I feel as if I am in a bubble that holds my mind and spirit outwardly from my body. Looking within I see the emotions churn and broil. Roasting away under the heat aggression of anger and rage, the emotions slowly dry, crumbling to the dust of regret and wasted effort. Inward, searching the crevices’…
Sea Stories: A Surprise Visit
It was a random port off the coast of FL, I met my uncle with my leave chit in hand, a day of liberty for he and I to make up for lost years. We sat on his couch watching “The Mummy” enjoying pizza. I cherish that sea story.

Optics
Rich are the optics of the well liked, Dark are the same closets, For everyone holds a darkness within, A twisted form of ourselves, Some take pride, Some fear it, Some work to overcome it, While others seek to perfect it, Our nature, the true nature, The soul of our being, That is the true…
