I am not content

21 Sunday Feb 2021

Tags

freedom, Honesty, Poetry



I am not content to fall,
any deeper,  
into the hole in my soul,
which was once occupied by the relationship with you,
my only child.

I am not content to dwell,
any longer,
on that which has befallen us,
respectively,
my dearest friend.

I am not content to remain,
paralyzed,
in a robotic survival,
originating in the grotesque realities of this life and world,
yours, mine or ours.

I am intent,
on creating something,
anything,
other than:

black holes
broken hearts
and trudge.

I may not know, may not see, yet,
this new future,
but I am fervently and passionately,
intent,
on creating it.

One
Foot
In
Front
Of
The
Next  

I am not content;
therefore:
I am intent. 

~Marcela: moving toward that which has eluded me most of my life, 
one well-shod step at a time.

Heads out of asses, please…

20 Saturday Feb 2021

Seriously, heads out of asses people! What’s happening in the town I work in is getting more terrifying every.single.day! A lot of really smart people have (correctly) predicted for some time now, that we have not seen the worst of it, and while that is difficult to digest, I cannot disagree. Come join me on any work day if you need (more) proof. I dare you. This article (link below) is a long, but to my mind, necessary read, and if you have even a tiny smidge of common sense and/or critically thinking brain, you will understand Mr. Niforuk’s very valid points and get behind the ‘go for zero’ movement.

Gag me with the decapitated head of a martyr…

14 Sunday Feb 2021

If you hate the commercialization of a holiday that literally had 
nothing to do with romance, rather “originated as a liturgical feast 
to celebrate the decapitation of a third-century Christian martyr, 
or perhaps two," by the Roman Emperor Claudius Gothicus, 
then please, by all means, STOP commercializing/bastardizing it. 

I am still a devout Atheist, but that does not preclude my belief 
that people should not be decapitated, for theirs. 

I have long abhorred this particular Hallmark Holiday, single or 
attached, and have repeatedly requested of my Royal Consorts to 
kindly, NOT engage. 

xoxo
~M: Still the Queen of This here Quackdom, and happily not receiving 
Valentine-specific overtures from one Salty-Ass Sailing Man, without 
having to ask, because he gets it, all by his-self.
