The Ageless Experiment

I remember seeing our dog, when he was getting ready to lie down, circle and turn and circle and turn some more, then move a bit to the left or right and get ready to lie down and then ,just before he did, would not. He would then take a few steps and start the […]

Slip sliding. Time. It slips slides away. Slipping away. Each moment. Sliding away. I read about her passing. Just saw her a month before. Young. In the mix of the day. Now slip sliding gone. She was always upbeat. She was so present. So vital. I don't think there was an angry bone in her […]

Corkscrew. Early in the morning. The air was chilly but inviting. Two motorcycles, alone, wandering corkscrew. The road roams through the Everglades from 41 to 82. It is officially number 850. A bunch of numbers that equal a quiet, winding, peaceful empty journey back in time. Panther Crossing signs are posted. No New Mines signs […]

The bow was big. Really big. It was pinned on the top of her head. It pretty much took over her whole head. It was pink, of course. Or maybe white. Since the photo was black and white it was hard to tell. But I think pink. It probably matched the dress. Her face was […]

Hours. How many exactly. How many total. Hours. How many wasted. Hours. How many tossed away like some crumbled up piece of paper. "127 Hours" got me thing about hours.
