Powerfully penned, Tim. The life of a writer has peeks and valleys. “I’ve lost my mojo. He ain’t risin.” A reference to the Lizard King?? Probably not, either way I dig the write my friend. Appreciate you.

So, Relic, huh? I thought I recognized those keystrokes. Good to see you here, another refugee from that lost cafeteria of broken crockery. Nice write, Tim. It’s like you were looking over my shoulder.

LOL Yes, I still check in to WC but I’m here more after the last debacle. It was nice of the owner to finally check in and fix some things. Thanks for the humorous comment, Flatdaddy. Much appreciated. 🙂
-
You are more than welcome. btw, I wrote a scathing letter to the owner about all the downtime, the constant hectoring by folks wanting to “represent us” and the porn — two days later the site was up and running again. Don’t know if my letter helped or not, but I hope that was it. Maybe he’ll pay more attention now. 🙂

I believe Jacob also complained but got nowhere. Perhaps your letter was a nudge in the right place. I complained about the porn years ago but to no avail. There’s too much of it and it degrades the site. Hopefully you’re right and the owner pays more attention, but we’ll see. I haven’t got much faith in him.

I hear that. I know several others who tried to reach Charley about WC problems, with no results. Perhaps mine got to him at some propitious moment — or maybe it was just coincidence, so long as he fixed it, I don’t care. But then, we are here now, aren’t we? And gee, everything here is just dory hunky, huh?

Mother Nature knows what she is doing before a storm.
The air gets still but you can feel it. The presence of something powerful brewing.
This whole piece gave that. I especially loved the stanza about the glass with delicate fingers!
And I love that pic amigo! -
Wonderful. Thoroughly vivid with the descriptive lines sewing it all together. We can see it, feel it even. Excellent poem Tim.

I saw the title and had to check it out. lol
I remember the block heads or was it box heads?
We’ll see if they make an appearance or if they are retired drinking a Mai Tai in Hawaii. Lol -
Perhaps their heads are too thick to fit here. LOL.
What an awesome, whimsical calling out to PS. Hopefully he sees this and picks up his slack! -
-
Ha! Forgotten about Box Head. I hope PS submits his artwork in here. He gifted me such a piece and it now holds such a poignant place in my world. You do him justice here.

Cleverly penned, Tim. What a tribute to the man himself. Speak, is one of a kind. Hope he sees this. Amazing write my friend. Appreciate you.

Hi, Relic! I’ve gotten so used to calling you that over the years, haha. I love how this poem captures the chaotic, procrastinating, wandering mind of the creative process. It’s like watching inspiration play hard-to-get while snacks, horror movies, and classical music are your sidekicks. The pacing — week by week, half-week by half-week — perfectly mirrors that slow, frustrating march toward an idea…until the rain shows up, like a cosmic mic drop! Haha. It’s a funny and oddly hopeful meditation on creativity’s mysterious timing.
