Discordant Alienation

                                                            Better days in many ways

 It's been a rough first six weeks of the year 2021. Friends of mine have passed on, and there seems to be a pall of gray smoke hanging over everything.

To say I'm not feeling much in touch with anything or anyone these days is almost a vulgar understatement - gotta get my head back on straight.

Bare--Knuckle Happiness

 

Day Fades To Gray

You struggle to remember the laughter

The smiles, the knowing glances

The joy of all those magic moments

All you have before you is emptiness

All you have behind you

Is all you had.

The Absolute Cold

Dealing With It

RT's wife passed away last week

It was sudden, unexpected, and devastating

When I received the news I was too numb to react

How could this be?

CT was young, vibrant, alive, a part of this world

And now she is not.

I didn't have the chance to see them the last time I was in SD

I should have found the time

I should have made the time

Two of the best people I've ever known

CT was a beautiful person, inside and out

And though I feel grief

I cannot imagine the grief

Of the man who was lucky enough to spend 

More than half his life with her

My soul mourns for you RT

My soul mourns for CT

My soul mourns for your family
