Just as the name suggests, a sketch at best. My calendar has become full my friends. Much more so than at any point in recent memory, which is actually quite nice. New protocols, new software, new tasks and new team members have made this past few weeks a welcome challenge. So, I now work a little differently. What tides me over from task to task are the small breaks when I let my mind wander. New ideas, new tactics and new achievable realities. My creative time comes in hyper-short bursts. A paragraph here, a frame or two there. One to the other but a pattern impossible to establish. Two days ago we speak of a friend who makes plans to come see us. Then the phone rings. He’s gone. Abruptly and far too soon. A reminder to fight the good fight and get done what needs to get done. Planning is intelligent, but NOT living along the way is inexcusable. You can’t wait. You must act. In whatever capacity you can.

wow…. chaos is liberating.

Agree. Nothing like a little jarring music to get the blood going.
Your Shifter graphic (and audio) reminds me a lot of Rudi Broschofsky’s street/western art. Definitely some cool parallels!

Wow, thanks for sending. the graphic was done by Kurt Gledhill. I would never be able to figure that out.

Funny you should say that. I’m so in love with writing but feel I’m not that great at it. But it’s one of those things I just keep doing. Have started doing more poems now, if I can even call them that. And thanks.
Nice I guess, can’t relate, don’t need to…different world.
Condolences to the loss of your friend.
Why does it take the loss of someone to remind us to live………you’re a long time dead !

Not sure. I think we get so in the weeds with our lives and jobs that it can be hard to take the foot off the gas. I know I’m guilty of that.
“…hyper-short bursts. A paragraph here, a frame or two there.” HAIKUmm focal length. “There is no tomorrow, Rock.” So true, yet so hard to live by.

I’m reduced to single frames and small poems.
Sorry to hear about your friend. I’ve been trying to heed that advice for a while. Maybe today. Hope springs eternal. Very much enjoyed the video. Fantastic photos.

We miss him a lot, think about him a lot. Had to be in a lot of pain to pull it off.
