Coffee "is" Work

Paranoid

Bumohemian

Spent the day arranging two songs with Gelo. 

Celebrated Arwyn's 24th birthday with some birthday food.

Freedom Park-ed. Freedom Park Bench-ed. Photo walked. People-watched. 

Wore pajamas all day.

ELBI Life. 

It's beautiful.

Elbi Morning, Every Morning

words and photos by baz (while driving)

Mornings 

hold 

a promise 

that 

evenings 

would 

always 

keep.

Just had

one of

the sincerest

goodbyes

from

friends

i

seldom

see.

Thank you.

Time Doesn't Wait

 by baz

Seems like the sunlight is starting to dim

And all I  believe in is labeled as sin

For when the clouds watch me they play with my eyes

As they shape the wishes I form in my mind

Can you make me better

Is a question I'll ask

A wiser but bitter...

Happy, irresponsible, free as a child can be

Holding on to nothing but all of the time we have

It's all that I long for today

Cause time won't wait for our "someday"

And She Was Gone

Ginger reading her poem entitled "And She Was gone"

She chose to walk alone

Though others wondered why

Refused to look before her,

Kept eyes cast upwards,

Towards the sky.

She didn't have companions

No need for earthly things.

Only wanted freedom,

From what she felt were

Puppet strings.

She longed to be a bird. That she might fly away.

She pitied every blade of grass

For planted they would stay.

She longed to be a flame,

That brightly danced alone.

Felt jealous of the steam

That made the air its only home.

Some say she wished too hard.

Some say she wished too long.

But we awoke one autumn day

To find that she was gone.

The trees, they say stood witness.

The sky refused to tell.

But someone who had seen it said

The story played out well.

She spread her arms out wide.

Breathed in the break of dawn.

She just let go of all she held...

And then she was gone.

A Dog, a Horse, and Some Kids

 story by baz

one day, there was a dog who rode a horse to school.

the dog's friends asked him, "why ride a horse when you can use your own legs to walk to school?"

the dog said, "because i have a horse."

the dog's friends asked the horse, "you allow a dog to ride on you?"

the horse smiled and asked them, "you allow a dog to go to school with you?"

and they went out for coffee and had a great time.

i will name my daughter "Seven"

i figured that posting stuff on Facebook is just contributing traffic to the already jammed graffiti walls that we have. is it necessary to read and know everybody's thoughts? a good thing about blogs, like this one, is that nobody reads them. it's like vomiting on your very own private space. it's releasing something without anyone really knowing about it. unless you're a vomit detective. it feels good.

i had too much caffeine today. that guatemala antigua from starbucks is really doing wonders for me. it's worth waking up to. i have this big fat textbook wide open and lying in the living room. it looks nice. it works well with the couch. i haven't touched it yet. 

i ordered chicken at kfc. willing to wait, 15 mins? yes. it's an opportunity to read an e-book and not care about anything but the chicken. the end.

I don't need to explain.

People see 

what they want to see.

People hear

what they want to hear.

I don't need to explain.

Never was a time

we gave way to what was meant

because what we want

has more meaning.

I don't need to explain.
