is it only me
or are glitches common
with hiccups the norm
and things working properly rarities?
it happens
something simple fails
no sign or clue of why
just another system reboot of my day
is there a reset?
some days I need one
push the button... poof
back in bed and waking up again
am I microsoft
needing a critical update
service pack thirty seven
incompatible with my hardware
driver update
reinstall fails once again
need to reflash my bios
system does not support updates
somedays I just want a hug from my motherboard......

The Three Hundred Twenty Ninth, November 25, 2011
the ringing sound I hear
is not within my ear
it comes from a bell
and from what I can tell
the meaning seems clear
the end is now near
what end is unknown
those cards yet unshown
it portends the twin fates
built on loves and on hates
perhaps we will destroy
everything we enjoy
for the sake of our fear
held tight as though dear
fed from those outside
that we will seek to hide
wasting slowly away
less a person each day
until nothing is left slave
we are a broken slave
or better the other side
that opens the eyes wide
causing us to awaken
before all liberties taken
to battle on for our rights
that most noble of all fights
it is now time to recall
liberty and justice for all
always hearing a talking quack
both sides of their smoking crack
again there is the bell
and the story it has to tell
it tolls out a wake up call
time to wake up for us all
is not within my ear
it comes from a bell
and from what I can tell
the meaning seems clear
the end is now near
what end is unknown
those cards yet unshown
it portends the twin fates

time passes
but how can this be true
we hurry so fast every day
trying so hard to beat the clock
rushing ahead at breakneck speeds
only to find ourselves falling behind
time is up
time stands still
indeed time never moves
is never in a hurry for anything
it has all of itself it will ever need
yet we rush through our life day to day
always wondering where the time has gone
time out
we out run time rather than it passing us
racing to get all those little things done
things that never needed to even be
priorities backwards as a society
judging on how much is done
rather than on how well
slow down and enjoy the life you have
rather than racing around for a better one
you only have the one to work with
better to enjoy being able to have it
than to be miserable wanting more
be thankful for the time to stop

chomp goes the teeth
grinding away my words
glitches once again you see
I hate server side malfunctions
deleting the words I wrote
publishing a blank slate
now space is not space
merely resets to the start
enter is not entering
this is too much fun
third time is the charm
I call this one a foul
MULLIGAN!!!!!

pressing
constant increased pressure
pushing in on my mind
on my awareness
some message
blank
lost
too much from without
crowding the within
losing myself
scream
confusion
too many demands draining
nothing left inside there
get out of my head
I need that space
IT IS MINE!!!!!!!

The Three Hundred Twenty Fourth, November 20, 2011
I open my eyes and read
there are words before me
clearly I can see them there
as I am certain you can too
so how is it possible then
that you read something
that I cannot see written
no matter how I turn the page
is it bias or blindness I see
which makes you claim
the facts clearly called out
are not even on your pages
you call another names
declare that they hate you
because they dare to say
everyone can have an opinion
your eyes are closed tight
by your own choosing
so shut your mouth as well
before your ignorance spreads

you see the box
safe comfort zone
I see stagnation
death of creativity
stay closed within
never allowing change
each day the same
and call it a life
I see the box
from the outside
imagining it changes
the box is a balloon
I watch as it lifts
rising ever higher
you don't even notice
everything has changed
imagination can change you
even if it is from another
by making you think
from a new perspective
