freewrite 2-10-12, "revolution"

first full piece completed in under an hour in about 8 months or so. feels great! enjoy.
Happy 2012, and thanks for reading!




the stress from the mess of bills on the table
is enough to make any solid oak unstable
unable to keep up with the onslaught
its not like im fuckin around or forgot
its just that i had to leave my job for the very medical reason
i have all these pieces of paper
covered in numerical treason
later i may look back on this and laugh
but for now i just want to send em all back
you see after leaving my job i lost everything i had
my benefits my career
so fuckin sad..why’d you leave? what about the ADA act?
well for that one must have a formal diagnoses
and i was never given a final prognosis
in English it means they couldn’t figure out what was wrong
before i ran out of Paid Family/Medical leave
word is Bon
so my job’s legal protection was suddenly in question
still unable to perform the vital functions of my position
due to my physical condition
calling out for help but no one would listen
so these were the options i was given
go back to lifting hundreds of pounds a day
or say good bye and walk away
sadly the fact of the matter
is my body is fried so i chose the latter
left on good terms, can go back anytime
but i fear i’ve already passed my prime
at 27 years old, too young to feel so old
now my new career is under fire from the sold-
out, decayed, hypocritical Feds
i just want to garden and create
with like minded heads
but these muthafuckas
gotta be in everyone’s business
cuz they’ve made a business
of fucking with everyone
can i get a witness?
well fuck you
and that’s all i wanted to say
i know my rights and which ones you’ve violated today
and im sick and tired and i won’t take it no more!
Revolution is here bitches
time to even the score!

"the scheme of things" (orig posted on myspace 12/22/08)

"my car is like my own personal universe she's my drug and it only takes 12 bucks to fill 'er up and in my galaxy there ain't no room for earth so i'm leavin it cuz i can feel my oil pressure building up turning over the ignition of my solar system check the gauges, push in the tape put my foot on the brake shift existence, light my cigarette and take it state to state until i crash into my fate..." -slug (atmosphere) it doesn't matter what may have happened during the day, i know that The Mountain will always be there for me. i hit the streets in the direction of my favorite local peak, feeling relief at just the thought of traversing its glorious twists and turns. a pang of excitement runs thru me like electricity as it comes into view. regardless of how many times i have been up here, i get the butterflies as i enter the canyon and accelerate into the great abyss. all my problems dissipate as i turn into the apex. i feel the stress and neg...

Get off my lawn

A lil rhyme inspired by an ancient booty-call attempting to hollar at me out of nowhere. You should know that you're barking up the wrong tree Homie That you'd even try sniffing around goes to show how little you know me I don't know if you were just drunk or lonely But you should lose my number, like I did yours I had to reverse ID the 661 area code that popped up on my screen Anytime I see those three digits I automatically screen the incoming call and assume the worst So glad that place and state of mind are in my rear view 'cuz it hurts to reflect on how broken and askew I was then Too busy being consumed by doubt and shitty men like you Thankfully, I grew blossoming like a wisteria tree I learned to stand on my own two feet and find true love and community So, despite what you think you know It'd be best if you get gone and stay the fuck off my lawn {08/30/2021 - RCH}

Medical Cannabis Product Review - S.A.G.E. Flowers From Trill Alternatives

Well I hope you all had a great Halloween/Samhain! It has been a rather wild ride over the last two weeks (or however long its been since I posted last). During that time I went to two different social events, discovered severe intolerances to at least one member of the nightshade family (potatoes, boo!), and unfortunately, a dear friend of mine broke his back (the night before Halloween - lame). This is a lot to happen in a short amount of time considering I'm homebound without a running car, and thus haven't gotten out of the house much over the last year. Luckily my friend should be mended up in a few months time or so. He broke his back "in the best way possible"; i.e. got really, really lucky *whew*. Horrible accidents like that always remind me what I take for granted. Its hard to stay focused on gratitude, when you are fighting so hard everyday to get through the basics and keep your mind and body from falling apart anymore than it already has. Its maddening w...
