Good Afternoon World of SG, hope you are well this afternoon. I looked at my calendar today and was shocked to see that my birthday is only a mere 4 days away. Where does the time go? And then 4 days after that is our first annual Chili Cook Off for the foundation we started, been a busy month already and its not even half...

Hello out there. I thought now would be a good time for an infrequent update for those of you out there that are reading. I hope this finds you all well and getting ready for any sort of holiday celebrations you might have planned. I think the thing I am most looking forward to is cooking for my family on Christmas day, that has been...

Hello world of SG, hope all are well this afternoon. I was living in the past again, going through odd old ends unearthed in the process of moving. I used to write a lot...used to view the world as a much larger and optimistic place than I do now, comes with age maybe? I took and English Lit class in college one summer that was...

So I was sifting through my old docs folder and looking at things I had created in years past while also listening to an interesting music mix, including some vintage Matchbox 20 and I was taken back to a much different time in my life. Below is about my love at the time, who would break my heart (even if not telling me something I...

Hello SG World,

Unfortunately it is 82% done so I will have to go back to...

hiding beneath a swollen sky
filled with the tears of a...

The night sits up with me
waiting to hear, already knowing
her outcome,
omniscient specter
by my side
guarded by the moon
light for troubled souls.
It is safe to question here
because the night listens
but does not judge or answer
concealing the trace of tears
long since wept,
fear lives here, thriving on the darkness
moving in and out of shadow
watching me...

A year of living dangerously

It was never all that it should have been
though sometimes it was more
single moments stand out from the noise
a quiet night in the wake of something horrific
comforted, comforting, close
and walks to class together in the rain
dancing in my room to spanish standards
and holding hair after one too many
then washing the whiskey off...
