Salvation
Sunday, January 4th, 2009
Churches and Liquor stores
booze and God
explore with me the path
of the neighborhood that is ours
I count a store every mile
at least twenty churches in that same time
a liquor store to match
I guess even salvation isn’t a strong enough patch
everyone wants to escape
no one moves away
they deflect it with the thoughts
“where would I go anyway?”
It’s sad
the way this place exists
poverty mixed with pleasure
street peddlers of bliss
in small enough packages
the soul is abandoned
So…’08 officially sucks…
Friday, January 4th, 2008
Yeah, so after a horrible ending to 2007, the first few days of 2008 suck mucho. One can only hope it gets better from here.
Moving on…I’m not doing New Year’s resolutions this year…I’m doing monthly goals. 
My monthly goal for January is to submit my work to no less than 5 outlets for publishing. Hopefully someone tells me I’m good enough to see my name in lights…or parchment. I’ll take either. 
I also want to start posting something here at least five times a week. I certainly write enough, it’s a bit hard to dicern the drivel from the marvelous sometimes though…oh well.
Oh and Utterz.com looks interesting, I think I can do a few things with that.
Look for my voice coming soon there!
Happy New Year!
