heartfelt and I am dropping the superego.
and Marita has not found me. (S)he probably never knew to look.

I like you,
This place.

I will keep being here.

in a silent way in a year. it's strange. i feel like i'm waiting for this monumental thing looming in the near-distance, and it's not quite in focus yet, but i can make out the rough outlines. and i dread it on some level. but at the same time, i know it's nothing i haven't already seen before, and when it gets here, it will be completely anticlimactic. it's only a new number. all of this psychological residue attached to it is a mirage. shine a light and it disappears.

where the hell did i leave my flashlight?

unhinged a number doesn't bring you wisdom
there is no magic switch in the universe
or a
'hey she's 30 now, give her something good' button



i thought maybe that too would happen to me
that it was a magic number
like midnight for cinderella


there is no magic in the world
but the choices we make

u24 me too.

Feels good. But also a stupid sense of time. It's not some ominous monolith standing testament to my impending demise or anything. It's just becoming aware of the tick of a clock that was always there.

Suddenly it's in your horizon of consciousness.

Death of a Rose And I am 44.

older than what a lot of men feel now.

starting to see life on the down slide.

but knowing all of the years that have been slipped between old mans hands

are meant to be believed or not.

that is a youth forgetfullness.

don't look at us ole ones with an irrelevant glance.

we just might have some wisdom to save you from yourself.

again...i'm turning 44

and i'm still the doar.
