A Painting July 27, 2006

Before that hour I looked back in time and saw a white sheet of nothing.
I look at you now, the ocean of dreams that call out to me like a whistle in my ear.

Doc, that’s cold! July 20, 2006

Just got back from my morning errands to the hospital and dropping stuff at campus. Nothing to report really. It was the basic blood pressure test and stethoscope and other basic stuff. No funny questions, no prodding, no gloved hands going places they shouldn’t.
