Most years, I haven’t been able to express my love and gratitude for this season. In Colorado, the trees are just now growing buds and beginning to blossom – other areas in the continental US have us beat by a couple of weeks. My admiration for flowers stems from my youth, but as of late,…

A Spider 🕷️
Which animal would you compare yourself to and why? Intricately weaving my home. Trapping my food. Always near you, three feet in every direction…without your knowing. Intelligent. Adaptable. And will rebuild if my web is destroyed. Spiders are equalizers – they bring balance by killing off disease carrying pests. I admire them, as cunning and…
Mirror, Mirror
The crawl to reassemble myself back to where I was – as if I was ever untouched. But, to reclaim something that was ripped from me. To purge all emotions in the wake of burdens and obligations. Pretending you’d rather love than burn the world to cinders. When you realize what was stolen never really…
A Void
Do you believe in fate/destiny? I certainly don’t believe we were destined to work jobs until we die – I rather like to think our destiny or fate is available to us when we free ourselves from the invisible prison called society. But that is a play on words. What I believe is…you can shape…
Impossible
If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why? And here’s why – Your world is created by your reality – your brain. So the word impossible, to me, is a paradox. Lay down your sob stories of limbs that won’t grow back, or people waking up from…
Is This a Dilemma?
What do people generally believe sustains us? Is it working and shopping, or something unseen? Hi, I’m JCS, living proof that the system maintains nothing, and I maintain myself. You’re thinking…that’s impossible. I’ve done what I’ve dreamt of just about without breaking my back. Another store is closing near me. Forever21 is closing one more…
Can He Outdo Himself?
Share one of the best gifts you’ve ever received. My s/o is not short of terrible tales of his ex. One story basically ruined Valentines Day, also had the holiday in wondering for me. Out of respect, I won’t divulge details, but I will offer you a glimmer of hope. February 2024, we decided to…
Casanova – Colorado Ballet
I was confiscated by how the performance would be. Nervous, even. I paid for a set in the mezzanine area – balcony, second floor. The first time I entered this opera house, it took my breath away. It was my daughter’s 8th birthday, and we went to see the Nutcracker as a family. I remembered…
It’s A No For Me
Before I descend into darkness, explaining myself, DREAM LIKE A PISCES is now streaming on BandCamp. This was always going to happen, and it was uploaded today because I had time to do it. The major topic of this blog is to admit that I’m tired of Threads. It’s gotten boring and old. Unless you…
