Hours Crawl When it Hurts
Why does time slow down
when bitterness rots the soul
dragging out the ache
Time magnifies pain
inescapable, troubled
nights last forever
Ecstasy flies by
Joy never lingers for long
It’s a brief season
The sunshine won’t last
Rain clouds on the horizon
Sun too hot to hold

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.
