So the other day, Tommy and I explored this lovely creek down his road. There were so many beautiful things to take pictures of! There was even this beautiful black and blue butterfly sunning itself on a rock... And of course, I don't have a camera anywhere near me. Just my luck! The stream was cool, clear, and shaded by plenty of trees. It reminded me of New York, really.

Speaking of New York, my Aunt invited me to come up this year.. I have a lovely camera and there are so many scenic places up there. It's tempting. I wouldn't mind a vacation just to get away, relieve stress. However, I do need a job down here. I don't have to decide right now.

But back to the other day! It was an opportunity missed, to take pictures of that beautiful place. And I doubt I'll have another opportunity to take pictures there again. It weights heavy upon my heart.

The opportune moment... Is there even one? For every situation, I'm sure that there is an ideal moment to execute a conversation, to steal a kiss, or to take a picture. The opportune moment... Do any of us know when it even is? How could we, the humans that I have no faith in (no faith in humanity, fuck yes), possibly know when the right, ideal, opportune moment is? I doubt it. That's why we've so royally fucked up our society!
However! That is not to say that there are not a scant few of us who may be able to tell when said opportune moment is, and take advantage of that opportune moment.

Ahh... The ponderings of a poet..


So, lately I have been itching to get back at writing Wergon's Tale... But I let my mom borrow the "manuscripts" (I call them so because they are all hand-written in pencil on notebook paper. It's the only way to do it, in my opinion. It just feels right when the pencil touches the paper..) because she said she was interested in reading my book. However, it has been nearly three weeks and she still has not read it. Seriously woman! Get on the ball with it! I mean, if you say you're going to read it, I need you to read it as soon as you can, if you're truly interested... Not on your own time!
Bah. Perhaps I am just impatient. I have many, many ideas for dear Wergon.

Aaaand that's just an update .
