Myself, Annie and Tomms sojourned to Hamilton earlier today. It is not the place I remembered, where one could see 5 amazing abandonments in one afternoon; we did, however, get to visit Consumers Glass, which is quite a beautiful place...

If they are gone,
and all you conjure and recall is the time spent together,
whistles and wheels,
walks and whatnot,
then everything is mere pocketboxes.
past/present/future
Dwell instead on the absence itself,
on what it means,
and then on its unfolding
(that is to say, whether the absence is sustained or only temporary).
I have changed much,
I am still changing,
I will be changed.

And it's all gone far too fast, being too much effort, too much 'next time', and before long, I am looking back and saying 'next time. Next time I will spend my time properly, and enjoy it for what it is - enjoy it entirely; I will take it as it is, blow it out huge, blow it important, then reduces it, smile, and leave, satisfied'.

(perceptions. )
A volunteer volunteers,
but this one makes those who are already working go slower,
ill at ease in her shifty, wavering presence.
I learned to merely ignore,
and today I learned that as a child and adolescent,
she was physically, sexually, and emotionally abused to such a state,
that, well, look at her (or avoid eye-contact. )
On the bus ride home I ran into another, who once volunteered;
a high-up executive she was once, so rumor had it.
One day she crashed, she cracked and she crumbled.
She had been struggling with mental illness her entire life,
and so it came out that her the.rapist had sexually abused her,
impregnated her...and for all those years she had covered and buried,
stored and ignored her final undoing.
What do I have to say to this person?
I acknowledged her greeting (we were a 1/2 bus length from one another)
and upon my exit, I asked her to keep us all in her prayers.
She said she would,
and reminded me that my boss' birthday is coming up shortly.
People can be as strange as clouds, and as elusive;
we dare not look up, and when we do we are overwhelmed.
Clouds are vast, expansive and expanding,
but sometimes,
even more often than not,
they just look like spilled milk.

I've been sick these past few days.
Come to think of it, I've been sick for a long time-
I continue to do the same (bad) things in my daily life,
as if I had never done them before,
thinking 'yes, today will be different'.
