Everyday is Earthday

Precycle. Downcycle. Upcycle. Recycle. Free-cycle. E-cycle.
Do Your Part!
Chill out when you drive. studies have shown that 30% of the difference in MPG is due to driving habits alone. anticipate your starts and stops, and drive the speed limit. put on the green arrows or chopin and unwiiiind.
Enable the "energy conservation" setting on your computer.
Stop your paper junk mail. A nonprofit called 41pounds will contact dozens of direct mailers on your behalf to remove your name from their mailing lists.
Buy local. Shipping burns fuel. A 5-pound package flown across the country creates 12 pounds of CO2 (3 ½ pounds if shipped by truck).
Eat less meat. If you’re already a vegetarian, you’re saving at least 3,000 pounds of CO2 per year compared to meat eaters. Poultry is slightly less greenhouse gas intensive than beef, but we should all try to eat vegetarian a few times a week.

When You Hurt,

I hurt...

Is it time to runaway again?

We still have each other.

grass isnt always greener on the other side

but it sure is different...

my life isn't the same without you. (a given.)
i still don't know how i feel about it... i just don't know.

get on the bus

find your happiness.

Tonight's Epiphany

“Why can’t we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together? I guess that wouldn’t work. Someone would leave. Someone always leaves. Then we would have to say good-bye. I hate good-byes. I know what I need. I need more hellos.”
-Charles Schulz

Romantics

Romantics of the 18th Century believed that poetry is the direct expression of the soul.
And that artistic expression was a mirror of the artist's inner feelings.

True.

I paint what feel, not what I see.

I write what I believe.
Sometimes I feel like breaking cupid's bow...

Painting by Pompeo Batoni, Diana Breaking Cupid's Bow, 1761

Butterflies Die

Smiles with no roots,
a theme of deception.
Bleeding souls and confused guts,
pain distracted by sunshine and music.
But emotional attachment always wins.

Resort to pills for happiness.
Everyone is watching, waiting
for you to fall.
Keep strong.
Repair your foundation with dreams,
your family name and roller coasters.

Still... you cant shake the feelings.
You're fated to pretend.
Crippled inside,
just a prisoner of a heavy soul.

the world at your fingertips

My barefooted little sister,
hippie yet to be.
dreamer, Lover
She wears her heart on her sleeve.

big round eyes.
seeing more than most.
the beauty on the inside,
the heart and soul.
she teaches peace unintentionally
by loving unconditionally

and with a smile,
she waits
for her make~believe ending
to become her true fate

hold on

it's like this

you color inside the lines
i color outside the lines

i am messy
but you are clean

you see in black and white
i like mix matched colors

but together i think we could possibly make a masterpiece

i think

If you take my hand, I'll run away with you...

or maybe from you...

Where would you go?

i'd go visit the depression.
i'd have drugs in woodstock.
i'd fall in love in the eighties.
i'd rollerskate in the nineties.
and i'd go all the way back to fifties and steal some clothes :)
