At first the path is wide open
So wide you could go anywhere
But with travel and experience
All of life's travails along the way
The path transforms itself underfoot
Narrowing down and down and down
Finally into the eye of a needle:
The way is ringing clear as a bell now!
Your soul has learned a hard lesson
The eye of the needle is threaded
The path ahead lies in full illumination:
it is wide open just wide open ...
An eclectic mix of short pieces of fiction and non fiction based upon my own unique view of the world from along the mushroom path heavily influenced by The Universe who I finally tracked down drinking in a little dive bar about half way between Santa Fe and Taos, New Mexico - I know right. last place I figured on finding The Universe either?

The TV Is Angry - short short story
TV:
What the hell are YOU looking at I mean REALLY for the Love of God! You use me like a cheap whore, man! The kids up at the butt crack of dawn with their freaking Captain Crunch and Cartoons. Grandma and Granddad all freakin day long, right, with my volume up through the roof, mind, you those Goddamn Game Shows mid morning and then those Soaps OMG why I just have to ask that WHY on earth with the Soaps I mean what the hell is WRONG with you people!? Dad starts with the cable news soon as he gets in the house from work just when I think what on earth could be possibly worse than these Soaps, comes these talking head pundits droning on and on O Dear Lord someone shoot me now PLEASE all of them saying absolutely nothing and then at that are still universally WRONG I mean does that not mean anything to you people that these PUNDITS somehow manage to say nothing AND be wrong at the same time! Then Mom and Dad banging it into the wee hours with the late night porn well here's a thought, Mom and Dad, turn me the hell off and screw each other in sweet, sweet blessed silence and dark! And this shit goes on day in day out, week in week out, month in month out, year in year out and just to be clear here about what I am up against: no weekends for me – O no goddammit don't EVEN get me STARTED on the weekends because there's no rest for the weary and no sick leave, either, mind you. No holidays and no vacation for me, no sir, and no retirement to look forward to just THIS SHIT right up until I the very moment I wink out of existence!
