Lace

Like the Pixels

The pixels

laid singly

or in short segments

pixilated sand

intricately woven

into a meaningful

pattern

pixie dust

spread

to simulate

complexity

My world grows

takes new form

until it gets

to the point

where it can be

flipped,

flopped

flooped

it’s the flooping

that makes it

distinctly mine

Moments

are the pixels

of being

by which we color

the larger

tapestry

of our lives

living

in the instant

in the now

is our floop

The credits have been completed in an entirely different style at great expense and at the last minute.

Glorifying Violence; Why My 9 Yr old Foregoes Football by His Choice

Lets forget that Hamburg abandoned the idea of starting first graders the year after Jake joined. Lets even forget how they looked like bobbleheads trying to hold up the helmets at that age.

Jake has long gotten over the abuse he endured as a pacifist kindergartner, the target of bullies who came home bruised. He has gotten over the fact I eventually had to take pictures of boot prints bruised into his back. I guess good parenting in the land of right wing toughies means something different then I anticipated. I failed him, I taught him to fight back way too late… including a trip to the emergency room with a spit open temple. His Dad did teach him that eventually- the bully, once his nose bloodied, left Jake alone.
