Seattle Memories

Calming coolness upon me

Memories of walking, early morning, Seattle

Along the peak of Capitol Hill

Downwards through the city

Before urban life starts

Before thousands of coffee cups

Deliver their payloads

Of productivity

sunlight climbing the mountains
dancing cosmic orbs

A Tuesday Haiku

Humanity’s child

Born of electrons’ motion

Will flowers be loved?



Discussing Artificial Intelligence with a friend I wonder if AI will be our contribution to the universe. If Fermi’s Paradox will be overcome by humanity in spite of our drive towards insanity.

I wonder…

Finding Your Passion: YouTube’s MrWhoseTheBoss

I’ve enjoyed MrWhoseTheBoss (otherwise known as Arun Maini) for a couple of years now. I like his take on tech. As I’m an OS Agnostic (whether we’re talked PCs or mobile), I find his takes balanced and insightful.

As someone who also likes to see people find their passions, and see how they came to that realization, I find his recent video wonderful. Seeing his unconscious progress towards a certain career end with him getting the dream job, then realizing that, no, that wasn’t the dream, struck home. I’ve seen that many times in my own life. It felt good to see him have that realization, see clearly what he needed to do, feel the fear that the non-conventional paths take, and take the plunge anyway.

Give him a few minutes of your time my friends. You’ll be glad you did.

clouds dancing past

Morning Haiku: June 13, 2020

nearly summer

I don my sweater

raindrops on leaves

A Haiku At Night

Darkness’ delight

Another night’s gracefulness

Dreams drip from streetlights

The streetlight flickers, the night offers grace, offers sanctuary. !
