While the wicked are confounded                                     Confutatis  Maledictis

Doomed to flames of woe unbounded.                              Flamis Acribus addictis.

Call me with thy saints surrounded.                                 Voca  me *** benedictis

Mozart's Requiem in D minor. Chilling.

Sweet spot

Effortless it seems like a candy coated dream. I swing and follow through. The bat hums and tingles
as I connect with the sweet spot.

Irresistible force meets compelling momentum. At top of the arc. knocking the bark off it.
Zen. Then back to reality.

The perfect moment. Time in a bottle.
what is your sweet spot. Your metaphysical groove.
Mind over matter. Then transcend.

POETRY. Like hittin the sweet spot.

Forgot my toothbrush

Oh. sorry for disturbing you but
I forgot my toothbrush.

Oh I am so sorry. I left my spare keys on the mantle.

Oh my bad. Could you look in the closet I forgot my heavy jacket.

Oh dang. I forgot my purpose.

Oh by the way. I forgot to love you.

Goodbye my love.

The Hindmost

The devil took the hindmost.   The foremost kept the tempo
He carried it away                     A beacon points the way
then devoured it                           Reliable to a fault
sat satisfied.                                  The devil
Gleefully.                                      mournful

   last seen walking
drag
gone

So. Note to self. Cant afford to slack
No time for looking back or sleeping with regret.
Cause the devil takes the hindmost.
and that's a certain bet.
