Coat Of Many Colours
I like to think I wear a coat
that reflects a kaleidoscope of colours.
Each to fit every aspect of myself,
from day to day.
Reds and purples for vivid thoughts,
memories of green and subtle gold.
No black or white just bright orange,
floating around my head.
Carried on a sea of aqua and azure,
emotions washed clean in indigo.
Mixed with violet and blue rivers,
resting on emerald hilltops.
My being is a prism that shines,
waves of coloured light abound.
My coat of many colours is vibrant,
My essence is of every hue.
For the future I hope a rainbow,
that marks the spot that I leave.
Full of the promise of tomorrow,
in the newness of life.

What Happens To Your Brain When You Stop Multitasking
Digital technology is the culprit that is causing us to doom scroll when tired, disengaged and unmotivated with the content that motivated you to log onto your device to consume in the first place. That is only the beginning. In the modern workplace (and even when filing cabinets were around, I confirmed this with my adopted parents to get my facts right); reading files while you are supposed to be present to the caller on the other end of the phone line is another classic example of multitasking that causes your brain (although adaptable and intelligent) to lose focus and concentration.

'Till Death We Do Art
There would be nothing divine in this world without art. Nature may surpass the divine to all intents and purposes, but like everything it absorbs and is absorbed by, it remains here, stuck on the surface of this world, ever-present, physically bound to the universe.
