Frown I

For the past several years, I
Respond without a smile
Operate like a machine, and
Walk in the dark
No sun in my universe

Rain III

The flu weakens me
But that didn’t stop me from
Dancing in the rain

Rain (Poetry Series): I, II, III

Notes to Self VII

Now, here I am, writing my 100th post here on The Dispatch. What should I talk about? Another Minute Warning post? Another Gratitude Log? How about a new Note to Self?

Well, then. I’m settling for the latter. Welcome to the 7th edition of Notes to Self – where I quote something relevant from any form of media or someone I know in real life. In this edition, because this is a monumental 100th post for The Dispatch, I’m quoting my number 1 hero, the legendary musician Dave Grohl of Nirvana and Foo Fighters.
