Pete’s Musings

Feeling pretty moody here today. Cloudy and Rainy outside. Coming up on my 1 year ‘anniversary’ of being sick with this liver disorder … and really sick and tired of being sick and tired. So I dug up a poem I’ve been working on for a long time and tried to finish it up. Well, I haven’t actually *worked* on it long … but it’s been sitting around a long time (like a lot of other things in my life). It’s been a while since I subjected anyone to my depressing literary ramblings, so you are all long overdue. Read More »

Oh man. I feel as though I’m on the cusp of something that has eluded be for along time. Something that I strive fore each and everyday but still escapes me … or I let it escape because I am not ready. Life. It seems so simple. Yet, at the same time, it’s impossible. Just find something. someone. somewhere. AND LIVE!

Ya, I know … I’m not thought of as much of a poet. But I am. I’m not good at it, but I spend most of by life in deep contemplation … so it is a part of me. At times of deep contemplation and change, I sometimes write some down. And, just so you know … I write weird poetry. I don’t just mean weird as in moody nonsense (which it is). I mean the WAY I write it is weird. I don’t even really like to write it down on paper because that medium is too restrictive. I write poetry that is full of colour (and sometimes animation) or poetry that contains thoughts or phrases that don’t always fit in the normal sentence/paragraph structure (i.e. no punctuation). Sometimes it’s meant to be read word by word or line by line or a few lines at a time. Sometimes words or lines need to be repeated to fully understand where the next line or word is coming from. :-/ This description isn’t making a whole lot of sense to you is it? Ya, didn’t think so! This is how my mind works though. I doubt yours works the same way. But anyway … some examples may help. Read More »
