sad how often
I struggle
seeking what’s
in my
heart
I sit, listening
My negativity fades
Bird song in sunlight
Clothes,
Simply…
Just clothes
Arguments burst forth
And I cant….
Children fighting
Like this thing
Defends innocent
Lives
No willingness to
Give, to attempt
Anything outside
The preconceived
“I won’t find
ANYTHING” in this
Place I’ve not yet
Seen.
Frustrated at my
Failure…
No understanding or
Trusting in my
Experience
All I’ve done
All I am;
Worthless
I am tired
Weariness wins now
Slumber seduces me
I wake upon my couch
Those who pursue war
Will doubtlessly find its wares
Collected anguish
Evening has arrived
Sunlight forcing itself down
Trees in their glory
This won’t be news for many of you, and I’ve known about it for some time. However, I received a question about this so I thought it was time to dive in a bit deeper.
Yesterday I spent a little time walking right along Colby. I was struck by the large number of vacant store front spaces. Which surprises me, since retail space in the region is in high-demand. I guess we can see the upper bound of that.
Perhaps Everett is considered too far from Seattle. I find that interesting as it’s only 35 miles, 44 miles to Seatac airport.
There’s a great arts community up here, with the Everett Philharmonic, the Village Theatre and the Schack Arts Center, just to name a few.
Plenty of businesses occupy the larger buildings, banks, escrow companies, the offices for Snohomish County, and, of course, the City of Everett’s offices.
The city has an amazing amount of potential. I hope that the business community realizes it and helps Everett grow…and grow the right way.
Maybe that can Everett’s call to glory: smart and compassionate growth! Just a thought.
