Things
I miss the most:
Walks,
talks, tears, sighs, holding hands;
the
touch of your breath.
Things
I’ll never know:
Youth,
innocence, childish dreams;
the
warmth of your smile.
Things
I can’t forget:
Yesterday,
the day before;
all that we once
shared.Untitled

My severed heart cries
Your razor desire cuts
Love pools at my feet
I
have a new story in October’s Romance Magazine. Just click the image to the
right!
Recently,
I had a fairly serious gall bladder attack. This came almost exactly two years
to the day to a similar incident which I spoke of right here. (Blog: Saturday23, 2013, Stepping Out Of Format For A Moment) Regular readers of mine know
well the large part irony plays in my life. I’ll leave the comments, like sleeping
dogs, lie, and simply say I believe my altruism that day two years ago was not
only tested but cursed. That curse has come to fruition. As they say, no good
deed goes unpunished. I have an appointment with a surgeon this week and we’ll
discuss possible dates. At this point I am sure it would be wish full thinking
to expect the young lady in question to return the favor. I am not a fan of
spending time in hospitals, visitor or otherwise, and yes, all things
considered, am a bit apprehensive.
I
have been asked once again to speak at the Ballard (Seattle) Branch Library’s
excellent monthly series, It’s About Time. I’ll be the lead speaker and will
talk on the art of Flash Fiction. If you are in the area, please come join us.
It is free, lasting just a couple of hours, and will be on Thursday, December
10, 2015, at 6 PM.
Also,
in December, the new issue of Paradox Ethereal Magazine will feature a powerful
fiction story of mine. I’ll post a reminder as time gets closer for both
events.
Thanks, and as always be sure to like, link, comment and share the love. We love to hear from you.
BJ
