THE WAY THINGS ARE

I'm sitting alone tonight.
Nothing to do.
Nowhere to go.
Just sweet silence.
It envelopes me.
It's nice to turn things off.
The calm is so welcoming.
I like it once in a while.
My mind needs this peace.
I find myself rushing nowhere.
I don't know the reason.
I need to slow myself down.
Live in the moment.
I preach it.
But I'm a liar.
It's hard to live in the NOW.
There's always the rush to nowhere.
It's not fair.
It's just the way things are.

  1. The Rush Limbaugh to nowhere! That's where his listeners are headed...sorry to waste space here but no one has the guts to stop this maniac and his racist rages. He gives legitimacy to the haters and boneheads and incites more hatred and fear every day...does anyone care? He is rewarded for his insanity with 50 million dollars a year from even more powerful haters in the background! Am I just getting older and more cranky or has America devolved back to the slave days where the Christian plantation owners would hang a slave for the slightest display of defiance against their masters?
