Sleepy Time
What time do you go to bed and wake up currently? For most of my life, I’ve managed on five and a half to six hrs of sleep per night. That doesn’t count the times I had to crash after being up on speed for a weekend or several nights, either studying (school) or partying…

A Good Question
What could you let go of, for the sake of harmony? Harmony That depends. Harmony is a product of structured edifices based on consensus for scales and tonal pitches (sound wavelengths).

First? Perhaps…
Write about your first crush. I’ve written about her previously and will provide a link to that poem below. As I was saying: first? Perhaps, but certainly the most ‘crushing’ to my soul in my young life to that point. There had been other girls that I’d fancied, ‘liked’, who’d swiped me to their ‘friends…

No Kings Protest Tucson
Describe one of your favorite moments. When citizens stand up to authoritarians. Here, we thought the world was, for the most part, DONE WITH KINGS. Unfortunately, they tricked us. They didn’t go away, just changed their titles from ‘kings’ to ‘CEOs’. Down with ‘kings’ in any and all their forms! For me, it was a…
