Leaves in the darkness
As the trees prepare to sleep
Stars peeking through clouds
Today definitely felt like autumn. Wearing sweaters, finding my gloves and scarves, all signs the fall is here. For me, it’s a happy feeling. What about you?

Devouring Rage
We devour rage
And it seeps into our bones
One tweet at a time
A meditation on modern culture. Am I off base? What do you think?

My Daily Haiku, September 28
My feet are moving
I delight in the darkness
A sense of calmness
A Good Morning Haiku
The sun is now up
Forcing its way through the clouds
Life begins anew
Well, I’ve a ton of stuff to accomplish today. Time to rise and engage life.
You ready?
My Own Save The Wave Playlist
Inspired by C89‘s DJ Trent Von and his Save The Wave show, I crafted my own playlist in Spotify. Give it a listen and let me know what you think. What’s left out? What shouldn’t be on this one?
If you’re a fan of Trent, here are a few places to connect with him online:
And here are some sites to learn more about his style, background, and, well, listen to his playlists.
- C89’s Archived Shows
- Soundcloud
- MixCloud
- Article about him in the Seattle Weekly from 2006. I remember his sessions at Neighbors on Capitol Hill back in the mid-90s. It was a huge part of my life.
Walking at Twilight
Walking at twilight
The sense of forward motion
My tranquility
I value my evening walks. They bring me focus and settle down my more manic moments. Often, I listen to podcasts. Today, though, I opted for music. Spotify is glorious if you love music like I do.
Tonight’s #Haiku: Into Seattle This Evening
Ventured into town
Walking the streets I once knew
Many memories

A Haiku From Tonight’s Walk
I adore this shot
The way light’s splaying outwards
Cutting through the dark
Watch “Watch This Before You Make Another Decision” on YouTube
Ah, good ol’ Gary V! I deeply appreciate his raw “get the fuck off your ass and get to work” videos. See, I dive deep into over-thinking. Churnimg through “what-ifs” is reflexive. And second guessing my choices? I’m a master at that, too. And it drives me nuts. I KNOW it’s a waste. I KNOW you can’t know how any choice would play out differently. Yet my brain churns through this nonsense. These videos are a good reminder to be vigilant against that and stop that waste of energy, that degradation of confidence. Forward! Move forward. Move, and forward. Don’t look back.
