Yeah… So….

Someone asked me where the inspiration for the last poem came from – and I told him I’m really not sure. It came from a particular instance with Travis. An emotional breakdown of sorts. I’m not sure if it’s one I’ve written about. I’ve only had a couple with him. Even that’s probably 1 too many :). But he doesn’t seem to mind. For the most part I’m a very steadfast, un-emotional, It-is-what-It-Is type of person. But I do have inner "turmoil" of sorts and it definitely comes out once in a while. I’ve told Travis that I have a "dark" side to my mind, and so does he, so I think that’s why he’s okay with a few emotional moments here and there. Hell, he’s probably more emotional than me more often than not. 🙂

Anyway, I have quite a few poems that I might post on here one of these days. I typically write them when I’m upset for whatever reason. When my mind is running in circles. It helps calm me.

I feel like I had something worthwhile to write about earlier and now it escapes me.

Ah well. What can ya do.

Maybe I’ll try again tomorrow.

I always feel like i have something worth wild and life changing to write about it and when it comes down to it. All i can think of it seems is a monkey clapping symbols

I admire people who can write coherent poetry, paint wonderful landscapes, and all that other artsy stuff.

I do enjoy it, but it has its drawbacks. I have no possibility of upward mobility, and I’m starting to get bored with the job, which is bad news.

This is the longest position I’ve ever had. Been here 9 years. I think after another year I’ll be ready to move up somewhere. This whole codependency thing explains some parts of my life and makes other parts even more complex, if that makes sense.

It does for me.
