I rose today and started chores the laundry and the dishes I made the bed and brushed my head and dreamed of many wishes Oh, now to work I go! Oh, now to labor! Oh, now to give my soul To labor with my neighbor Now I lay my head to rest My body wornContinue reading “A Days Work”

The End of The World
Everyone is scared of the end. Nuclear war. The End Times. Asteroids. But… why? And, more importantly, why do we want to survive the end? I have yet to find a satisfactory answer for either question, which is kind of funny, given that I am what many would consider to be a prepper or survivalistContinue reading “The End of The World”
Kindness
Do not be kind If that’s all you do Be kind when it means being good To hide behind kindness Can make alliance With evil that hides From the truth
Do Better Every Day
If you had to sum up your life philosophy in one sentence, what would it be? It’s as simple as that. Whatever you do, whoever you are, do it better, be that person better, every day. Do not accept who you are as “good enough”, nor “kind enough”, nor any other thing that brings goodnessContinue reading “Do Better Every Day”

With little compare Out to the Wilderness Under the sky, Please setContinue reading “Out to the Wilderness”
Willow
I long to see the willow tree Blowing in the wind It’s flexing branches in the breeze As fall settles in I admire the willow tree Bending in the storm through the thunder and the rain It’s branches are not torn Let me love the willow tree It’s beauty, and it’s shade I lie beneathContinue reading “Willow”
Crusader
In twenty years of soldiering, William had never seen such horror. Such.. indefatigable brutality. The ground rumbled. Before him lay a horde. Hundreds upon thousands of Seljuk Turks, saddled on fresh horses, striking down from the heavens with a swarm of arrows, as if from God himself. William barely had a moment to raise hisContinue reading “Crusader”
