Writer's Block

It has been entirely too long since i have written anything, on here or paper or anywhere. i am going thru some pretty heavy health stuff and instead of writing about it, i  locked up, and have been really struggling to express myself over the last year or so. i probably won't get into any details on here about it. i should start another blog for that sort of writing and research, i just haven't fully convinced myself yet. but i have started writing again almost daily over the last week, and i think i got the juices flowing again, which is a huge relief because i think all artists fear they will wake up one day and no longer be able to express themselves in the ways that they find satisfactory. i don't feel like a whole person when i am not writing. so i am grateful to say that after this long silence i have two brand spankin new pieces to share with you today, one was started last week, both were finished this morning. i hope you enjoy them, i will post them next in separate posts so they can have their own pages and make any potential future searching easier. i just wanted to give you a little idea of where i have been. thanks so much for reading!!!
peace and love

"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...
