Rest in the Shadow: October 2009
http://restintheshadow.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 29, 2009. Such sweet memories we invoke. So oft’ walked alone. Now enter splashing tango in drizzling midnight. And small talk sentiment for hours on the phone…. Cheek to cheek, dancing rhythm. Begins to exfoliate intricately woven designs. And extinguishes the addiction. Of once-fashionable tattoos of caustic shame. And on flaky white chill winter night. Dull images flash across my flickering screen. And I’m reminiscing about things that have not yet made the scene. So, I forgot to upd...

Rest in the Shadow: July 2010
http://restintheshadow.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 10, 2010. What a joy it was to be your father, Mariah. What an amazing God-given miracle. And now, 16 years later, I sit on this hillside, outside the Rotunda, sipping an evening espresso. I wonder what decisions you will make in the next 16 years, nay, the next year ahead of you. What university or walk of life will woo you? What calling or vocation will expose you to both the right and wrong of this consuming world outside your present bubble? What kind of woman will you become? Moving F...

http://restintheshadow.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2009. I know this much is TRUE: For the most part, TV will suck the life out of you. In a moment of insomnia driven weakness, recently, I caught the last half of the 80’s brat pack film 16 Candles. Films like these bring back hauntingly embarrassing. Memories of my pubescence, by the way. The rest of the movie is CRAP! Did we really live this way back then? After all, there was a time when I frequently applied layers of aquanet in an attempt to adequately feather my long hair. Dazzling,...

Rest in the Shadow: notHing Heroic Here
http://restintheshadow.blogspot.com/2009/06/nothing-heroic-here.html
Sunday, June 14, 2009. If only I knew the answer. If only I could hear the whispered response. Do you ever hide yourself away so that in solitude you can simply cry? I would wipe away your tears if only I could hear the rhythmic pattern of your warm drops on cold floor. Do you ever burst out laughing? I would giggle and roll on the floor in awkward and relentless animation if that would even splinter your expression into a smile. Do you ever gaze hopelessly at the stars in the dark of night? Seven years ...

http://restintheshadow.blogspot.com/2010/05/boy-meets-girl.html
Wednesday, May 19, 2010. Girl wants to run like the wind. So they both stay. And they learn to trust. And love. Again. And that’s a good thing. And I hope the girl will truly stay,. Because she means the world to me. And she’s smiley. Infusing a radiant yellow back into my deepest of mellows. She makes me laugh. And blush. And feel purpose in my veins again. She challenges me to be translucently real. And to live for something better than myself. She complements me, filling in for my inadequacies. So my ...
