random thoughts #4

seamlessly divided
between
love and abhorrence
wonder which side
i’ll fall upon
when i leap from my perch
suspended in mid-air
swinging among the clouds

As writers, we often tell ourselves that we write for love of craft, or simply to release some screaming demon from our head. However, there comes a time when someone (other than the author, of course) reads a body of work and says “I like this.” And you know what?

That feels good.

Lo and behold, I have my moment in the spotlight! Jara over at Random Rhyme Reason has featured me on her blog. (Yes, “me” is a clickable link.) Honestly, I am honored. To me, this is one of those moments in time right up there with “Will you marry me?” and “I’d like to thank The Academy…”

I feel loved. Not saying that the 1,000+ visits had not already achieved that, because it did. I just feel more.. MORE, you know?

In the meantime, stay tuned for the next installment of the current story “Reckoning”, as well as more poems and random postings. And don’t forget to visit Jara over at Random Rhyme Reason!

Peace and blessings.
