the end i decided to go with my first idea we are alive such a short time in comparison to the age of the universe in that flash we live love and then return our carbon to the earth our purpose is a question that philosophers have debated for as long as men have walked the planet in the end i believe we are meant to love self others home and our creator have you given any thought about your purpose what did you conclude share this share on facebook opens in new window facebook print opens in new window print email a link to a friend opens in new window email like loading murisopsis

dumbo but the uniformed officers are a little bit of over kill in her opinion she is armed and a better shot than almost all the beat cops bureaucracy is a hindrance to justice most of the time the anonymous caller was correct that there was a shopping bag on the roof of the building i was correct in thinking it had nothing to do with the murder the bomb squad was called and no one was injured nothing gets the force in a twist like a threat to one of its own i had double checked and the cop killer was still behind bars everything pointed to a copycat it had been almost 5 months since the shopping bag had been removed and there hadn t been any more chatter about it dumbo was at his desk when he jerked and pointed did you just see that i glanced up following his index finger nothing but sky he described a pink happy birthday balloon i cocked an eyebrow of course dumbo reported it that resulted in a cascade of events my style was being cramped by the latest directive from the brass until further notice i was in protective custody sort of apart from being ordered to take my partner on all calls i also had to drag along a uniformed officer my nights were to be at my apartment with police securing the perimeter i had to take my entourage to the grocery and to the bank getting up to make tea or get a drink of water became a reason for every eye to turn toward me i didn t know who would go nuts first me or dumbo he kept seeing balloons drift by the window he claimed they had changed from happy birthday to over the hill balloons i hadn t seen any of them until yesterday it was black with a tombstone emblazoned with rip it was blinking no one was seriously hurt by the explosion and no one was laughing about putting bullet proof glass on 4th story windows anymore i never thought i d be the target for revenge i was never convinced that it was me the sociopath was after the bomb was the first real break we had in the case the forensic teams were crawling around checking every surface like ants they managed to pick up every shred and shard from the balloon and the damage dumbo was rattled hell most of the guys wet themselves again i ve included the 5 word prompt from the procrastinators weekly writing prompts this week the words are tea surface pink apart and water you should check them out share this share on facebook opens in new window facebook print opens in

another blackout poem from the book pigs in heaven by barbara kingsolver this time page 115 and so it goes this book has been so timely in allowing me to channel my feelings about this administration throw hot water whip the beads plastic let none escape go go rush truth is slow a tired walk just in case cut through the park talk yell yell along the way say see wait live caution about getting caught knows a way to live to move leave to move away notice look not not for long look see remember just walk there is not much to say that hasn t already been said still i m compelled to keep sending words into the void i won t change anyone s mind but by speaking i try to absolve myself of being complicit in this crime against humanity against human rights against the principles of christianity and my own heart at least my conscience is clear i did not cast my vote for this felon president my sister s eldest is very politically active and regularly helps organize and participate in protests permitted with a designated route one of the things the protestors are told is that if violence breaks out move away from the area they have designated safe spots where they can meet and count noses receive first aid and have transportation back to their cars or the buses these protestors represent a wide range of ages and physical abilities so they have a buddy system so that those with mobility issues can be kept safe violence has occurred but 90 of the time it is initiated by federal agents of ice and cbp the other 10 is linked to the rabid maga movement in cahoots with white supremacists what have we become share this share on facebook opens in new window facebook print opens in new window print email a link to a friend opens in new window email like loading murisopsis

challenge to write a poem in any form in response to the prompt a 78 year old woman blows out candles on the birthday cake one refuses to be blown out no matter how hard she tries it burns with a blue flame and whispers a name she hasn t heard in 40 years the poem is a conversation with the candle what does she decide to do let it burn or pinch it out it was my birthday to enjoy with a cake and 78 candles blazing but one refused to go out whispering simone in a sibilant tone mocking me shocking me into silence i remembered and kept my silence no longer able to smile or enjoy that name said in an accusatory tone as guilt and shame flamed to blazing afraid that i d be found out she d done horrible things when out but made sure that corpses stayed silenced the candle remained stubbornly blazing hissing just try to enjoy i ve lived well and kindly to atone i recalled her belligerent tone she locked the door just try to get out the fire licked the walls to a faint enjoy until the screams faded to silence she was pleased with the blue blazing i watched the candle melted but still blazing my slow motion halted the party tone even the grandchildren fell into silence as i watched wax pool and flame sputter out only then could i freely laugh and enjoy enjoyment restored with a heart blazing and unfound out i admit murder is tone deaf and the old me is now silenced i chose to write a pentina this is a form developed in 1995 by an american leigh harrison as a variation on the sestina the pentina is 5 lines and 5 stanzas with a 2 line envoi the end words are repeated in the following order s1 1 2 3 4 5 s2 5 1 4 2 3 s3 3 5 2 1 4 s4 4 3 1 5 2 s5 2 4 5 3 1 with the envoi as 1 2 3 4 5 or 1 2 3 4 5 share this share on facebook opens in new window facebook print opens in new

evans sometimes has a hard time keeping a straight face when suspects talk crazy and i don t mean crazy scary but crazy haha the vacation ended it was back to work responding to a call we ducked under the yellow police tape and were stopped in the middle of the drive by the michelin man in black the bomb squad was removing what was believed to be the murder weapon a saucepan of bullets cooked dry we could just make out the victim face down on a formica table it was going to be awhile before we had access the lady of the house was cuffed and in the back of a black and white she was a bona fide throwback to june cleaver right down to the apron and 1950s hairstyle she looked confused as the car pulled away from the curb other than the man at the table the house was immaculate the refrigerator screamed ocd with all the eggs large end up and the tupperware lined up exactly one finger width apart it was arranged with simplicity and economy like they taught in home ec classes the man had been killed by a single bullet to the temple i lost the coin toss and went back to interview the wife she was a prim woman of nearly eighty years you would think that someone who had just committed a murder would be filled with emotional flotsam and at least a little anxiety she was cool as she confided that her husband was a confessed werewolf her whole married life he had controlled and dominated criticized and berated her she told me that her husband had insisted she cook the bullets i suppressed a smirk i sent her for mental competency testing i once again included the 5 word prompt from the procrastinators weekly writing prompts from 6 28 2026 consisting of flotsam simplicity believe large and middle share this share on facebook opens in new window facebook print opens in

t found any fish or seafood i haven t liked i introduced sparky to the joys of real crab and fresh lobster and of course shrimp to save money we used to dine on sardines on crackers yum and i d buy the cheap fish aka shark steaks but one of the dishes i really love is squid because my parents introduced me to a variety of cuisines from around the world i ve done the same for my children and by default sparky i d had a korean dish called ojingeochae bokkeum it was so tasty that i regularly make this as a treat i m fortunate that the oriental market in town carried the squid and all the required ingredients ingredients 2 t oil peanut rice bran or olive oil will work 4 t karo syrup or you can substitute half honey and half karo 2 t soy sauce 3 cloves garlic minced 2 drops fish oil 1 6 t gochujang korean chili paste i use only 1 2 t because i m a spice wimp 6 oz shredded squid 1 t sesame seeds i use the black seeds place the oil karo syrup soy sauce fish oil chili paste and garlic in a deep skillet or wok bring this to a boil stirring mix in the squid and coat it with the sauce stir and turn the squid until it is slightly translucent remove from the heat and sprinkle with the sesame seeds serve with rice i topped my rice with seto fumi furikake a rice seasoning made of sesame seeds bonito flakes tuna dried seaweed soy sauce dried egg and potato powder share this share on

2026 1 minute looking at the first time again here s my poem for the w3 poetry prompt set by the poet of the week david bogomolny who also just happens to be the host and moderator for the we ave written weekly on his blog the skeptics kaddish the challenge this week is to write a poem of any form or length using the theme of doing something you ve done before that feels like you are doing it for the first time the only requirement is to use the word again in the poem every day i stand at the sink a chore that must be done again and again i m the one every day i stand at the sink a chore that must be done stack wash rinse the dishes to join the banter one of my wishes a chore that must be done stack wash rinse the dishes mundane routine i work quiet they eat dessert while i diet stack wash rinse the dishes mundane routine i work quiet a plate slips falls breaks and that was all it takes mundane routine i work quiet a plate slips falls breaks i see the pattern once more shards and pieces on the floor a plate slips falls breaks i see the pattern once more remember picking and buying really see it anew start crying i see the pattern once more remember picking and buying every day i stand at the sink not mindless i think remember picking and buying every day i stand at the sink a chore that must be done again and again i m the one every day i stand at the sink i wrote this using the form of a catena rondo the catena rondo was created by robin skelton he took the name from catena which means chain and connected it with rondo which means circle it becomes obvious why this name was chosen when you read a catena rondo the form is composed of any number of 4 line stanzas each stanza has a rhyme of a1 b1 b a1 b1 c1 c b1 c1 d1 d c1 etc with the last stanza being identical to the first stanza so here s the scoop on how this subject came to pass at easter i served my usual feast using the good china these dishes are from the days before microwaves and dishwashers they have a metallic silver rim and are very delicate both in construction and pattern so they require hand washing i ve washed them many times in a robotic manner i m usually trying to hear the conversation at the table instead of dwelling on the dishes anyway i dropped a bread plate luckily it didn t break unlike in the poem but i looked at that plate and really saw it for the first time again i was flooded by the memories of choosing the pattern and how i thought i d finally really arrived as an adult since i now owned real china plates and i m turning into my mother she got to an age where she said i m going to enjoy my dishes and silver and that s what she did she ate off the good china every day and used the good silver as her everyday cutlery she wore the fancy gold rims off by putting them in the dishwasher her silver wasn t any worse for the wear since it was designed to be used share this share on facebook opens in new window facebook print opens in new window

been roped into a situation she s not happy about or comfortable with but you have to pay your debts i made it clear to dumbo that we were partners not a couple he made it clear that he liked my family and loved my mother s potato salad and fully intended to get more of both i took interrogation 101 from my father and advanced courses from my mother determined to uncover dumbo s motives for fraternizing with my family i initiated the inquisition he cracked easily he pulled a newspaper clipping from his wallet the headline read dinosaur catches fire at ohio amusement park as he handed it to me he mumbled that his mother had sent it to him prompted by my practiced puzzled look he spilled the dinosaur was part of his childhood and he felt he was losing all connection with his roots oozing homesickness like pus he admitted that he missed his family a family as wacky as mine it was suddenly obvious he was a midw...
