One moment.

From the haste of AugustDelighting still…With whirlwind gatherings.September prepares…With chopped wood,And heat devices checked.And fresh new experiences for some,Beginning indoctrinations young!Learning to start days…With a discipline no one fully accepts,Or expects anyone to ever crave!Amusement parks begin to close.Although the rollercoaster of holidays,Will upon us all impose…To exchange our carefree dispositions.For the onslaught of traditions,And…

For dissections and critique.When I began testing the waters,I chose to jump in…Learning ‘then’ to sink,Or swim.With those of shallow minds.Or with those whose minds were ‘deep’.I did not boast to float along like some.My intentions were based upon content.Flash splashes made to say I can make a wave,Or two.Was okay at first…But I have…

Without your ‘fixes’…I have been encouraged!Those days have gone with the grief…I need not revisit,To satisfy a passing temptation,You wish to release.I have not missed that unhappiness,Or will I give what ‘was’…Another chance to regret,In suspicions planted to tease.Those sleepless nightsHave long gone from here.And so has your hold on me!No pointless reappearance,Can forgive the…
