Texas Toast Tuesday

So I woke up this morning and I was still in Texas.

Damn. I actually moved here. What the hell just happened? This time last week I was in Chicago freezing my ass off, contemplating my next move. Boy that happened quickly.

I still have the desire to be other places. I know in my heart that Texas is where I need to be now. You know, plant a seed or two and see if any other place'll take me. I still desire to be in Georgia, but there is a lot going on right here... In my mind. That whole editing phase looks like it'll take place right here in the lone star state. For a second I was tired of writing and searching for the right copy edit service, and then I pulled all of my stuff out to give it a once over.

Damn. I like writing.

Funny, I haven't been inspired to write new stuff as of late (meaning December thru February) and the new stuff that's been on my mind has a new slant, a new twist to it. I'm not ready to expose any of that stuff right now but I do have a piece I can share:

I now see you from the corners of my eyes

You exist in the shadows, lurking out of sight

I know you're there

You affect my thought on many occasions

your influence invokes change from within

I want to hate you for that but I cannot

Instead I amplify my abstract thought

embellish emotional senses of well being

or lack thereof

I admonish the blah and embrace my ultra creative

Releasing additional epithets of empathy for the boring

Tweaking more twists in my mind

I play with snippets of brainwaves to tease you

Hoping you would come out to rejoin the cognitive

and once again you'll be my muse

But you hide from me and I cannot accept that

Quit playing and bring that ass out...

Daddy needs to write more checks

I just made that up... Whatever. I hope this thing still works.
