Holiday

Holiday glamour wrapped up for your eyes

Sparkly bright festive colors

Endless musical sounds drown out your sorrows

Motions constant motion continues

Circles around me circles around you

No one sees the dark within

No one hears the lone cries and tears

Holiday depression reappears

Holiday glamour wrapped up for your eyes

Hiding out

I am hiding out in front of you
Standing my ground hoping to find the light at the end of the tunnel
Walking forward stuck in today
Hiding seems to be what I do best and every year this time comes to me
Sitting around waiting for the next time she drops me on the ground
Tearing at my heart the thoughts of you floating by
Touching you in the dark I am hiding out right in front of you

Brain function

Moon glistens sitting just above my head. I feel her rays beaming down on me. Pulsing through my body. I am whole again, seeking solace and comfort on the sandy grounds beneath my feet. Seen any one lately I tell myself no. I am not seeing anyone lately nor will I ever again. For this is where my love lives in the moons glow. I am at one with her now. Shielded by mothers breast, arms held tightly around my body. I am free to love deeply now. Moonlight taking me away in her bath of light. written by: Derrick A Jasper

Money nightmare dream of writing professionally

I am slowly realizing I do not have the skill. The skill referred to is not writing. Rather the marketing and getting my work sold. I am a creative writer. I can perform product reviews if it is something I may use or like.
We signed up for Helium and Associated Content. I have not gotten paid from Associated. They actually keep sending me emails telling me they have paid me. My Paypal account sits bare. Another subject for another day.
But what I really want to do is publish poems and books. I may not be Shakespeare,  however I am sure the gift lives in me. Some things produced are better than others.
I took a writing course to get myself more familiar with The Writers Market. Guess I am not there yet. Or, I am in need of someone else to do the marketing. Perhaps that is a topic for writing an article. How so many of us are sold on others ideas. And they may not work. Everyone wants to sell me a book or sell me a writing opportunity to learn. Learn how to market, learn how to write. Food for writers, knowledge for writers. Writers selling other writers on other ideas. My head is spinning. How about yours. Well I have a couple pieces and would be honored if you read me.Check them out.

Enjoy. :)

More more more

Enjoying the last couple weeks. Published now three articles I am proud and learning I need to spell check and re-read everything prior to getting published. I am hard on myself. I need more hits. Perhaps the articles need to be stronger. Or perhaps I am a fledgling not yet out of the nest. But willing to fly when asked. Check it out if you click on the photos they enlarge... Enjoy - And THANK YOU FOR READING ME:)--

LIFE TODAY

I wish I could tell you that today I am sitting at home.  My feet raised, while relaxing in my favorite reclining chair.  Unfortunately I would be telling you a lie.  So imagine now that I am in a dank, dark drab looking room.  It is late three in the morning. I am typing, I sit straight up and type. Yep I am at work. The middle of the night or morning if you will.
This job is the one that pays the bills. God knows I am waiting for the writing to pay.  Then maybe by the universes grace I can stop working in this field.
Currently it is about 88 degrees and humid. We are in Arizona, and no one thinks of humidity with Arizona. This year we have a lot of humidity. We had ran for three days now we are drying out.
What a grand morning I hope today will be. I am off work for four days. Yippy. May not be a dictionary word. But it is one that works for me. I will wait to tell you what I do for a living. The knowledge might leave you speechless.

There are toads outside croaking for mates right now. If you rung a cat that is what I think they sound like. A deeper pitch, but a cat. Perhaps even a sick cat. They can be heard through the stucco walls of this building. I am in the desert outside of Tucson. In Catalina Arizona.

I think this will be the only job I may actually enjoy in this field. If I had to do this any where else forget it.
I feel a little lost inside this morning just a bit tired and I would like to just go home and sleep.
Oh well better go enjoy the day for now.
Here is some advise, not a good idea to blog at work. Unless you are a writer. Bye for now:)
