Where Moments Go. Top Story - September 2026.
"Just maybe, Time isn't so thin." Maybe time collects. Not in years or minutes, but in the things that were there while we lived them.

Love In Flames. Top Story - September 2026.
The background photo was taken when wildfires raged across Los Angeles in January 2025, killing 31 people and levelling thousands of buildings. The fires were caused by environmental factors like drought and severe wind gusts, compounded by human choices around water supplies, urban planning, and firefighting budget cuts. In contrast, the caption is an adaption of the classic “what if we kissed…” template from the deep-fried meme era of the late 2010s and the happy absurdity popular at the time. Together, the elements create a nostalgic sense of joyful irreverence juxtaposed with the disaster; finding a little whimsy in the face of desolation.

Writing Reflections: Echo Cries. Top Story - September 2026.
Happy Saturday once again, my friends! I’m back with another Writing Reflection. This week, I want to focus on a poem that falls under a category that I write quite often: poetry based on mythology. If you have followed my profile for a while, you have probably noticed that I like to write poetry based on Greek and Roman mythology. In particular, I like to write this kind of poetry using variations of the poem style of the nonet, but instead of nine lines, I use twelve or, sometimes, thirteen lines (although this is rare, and usually only because I have miscounted and don’t want to go through the work of rewriting the poem to be twelve lines).

Through the Eyes of Bill Bixby. Top Story - September 2026.
Link to the Challenge: Thank you for the Challenge, Annie. I may forgive you one day. I had quite a few fears as a child. It is not worth my time listing all of them here, but I count my father, the odd bully, death, and the possibility that I just did not belong to the family I was with as a large part of the list. It was so bad that I reached the point, when we moved to the suburbs, that I could watch any horror film by myself and barely feel any fear (my mother wondered how I could sit in our basement on a Friday night watching some of the best years of Wes Craven and John Carpenter). To me, they were just cartoonish fantasies after everything else I faced and thought of.

Are You Dark Enough. Top Story - September 2026.
Are you dark enough? Would you challenge yourself to be darker? Is it something you could embrace? Or would you fear being darker or embracing the darkness inside you? For this particular reason, if you can't embrace the darkness, you're out of your depth.

Writing Reflections: Neuschwanstein Castle. Top Story - September 2026.
Happy Saturday, folks! I’m back with another Writing Reflection. Today, I want to talk about a unique kind of poem. I suppose that you could call it an ekphrasis because it talks about art, though I never really have seemed to have mastered this type of poem—which might be exactly why I should talk about it a Writing Reflection.

Cracks. Top Story - August 2026.
What happens when you stop trying to shape your thoughts? What happens when you outpour the mess of your humanity, lay yourself bare before the light?

Musings, Jokes, and Dreams to Wake Me Up 1. Top Story - August 2026.
I have a certain routine that I like to keep, but that hinges on me waking up within a certain timeframe. Sometimes, I don’t wake up within that timeframe and it winds up being afterwards, but it isn’t as if I can’t still do many of the things that I want to do throughout the day. But everything gets pushed back, or I often wind up with less time for certain things, etc. That will bother me if I do it too often, because I’m not being so strict with the timeframe in which I need to be up and starting to get ready. It’s not like I’m asking too much of myself. As long as I’m up and starting the necessities between 7:30 A.M. and 8:30 A.M. I’m happy. Too often I am not starting to do anything until a half an hour or an hour after. Every once in a while is OK. But I don’t want it to become a habit.
