Poetry: The Passage of Time.

There are so many things I want to show you
Before my life is done;
So many words to tell you
But the days still swiftly come.

I want to give you to my heart
And everything on my mind
I want to pour out my thoughts
And watch, with you, the world go by.

But the historians are chronicling more quickly every day
And the facets of my thoughts are vanishing into the haze
I can't remember
I can hardly speak
My eyes are drying
Knees cracking weak.

I can't stop the world from spinning
I need to meet the next deadline
I need to rush, despair and panic
No, I can't spare you a dime.

But now, I feel, the world is spinning
And I can't even see your face
Because I'm too busy running about
To even stop and notice the place

I can't remember who I was.
I don't know who I've become
Because in the throes of life,
I've lost to what I once clung

But if I stopped, would you still love me?
Would you even know who I am?
If I stopped and saw the mirror
I don't think I'd like that man.

But I will try.

What was I thinking?
What did I feel?
If I can't see without you,
How can I know what's real?

If I can't see what really matters
If I can't touch or hold or feel
Then whatever doesn't bother
Is what's really real
And whatever I have worked for
That I've been "earning" all my life
Is just another object
That doesn't have life.

The world is weak
And life is bleak
For without love the point is naught.
And continued striving
And corporate climbing
Gains nothing that was saught.

So I'll take the time to tell you
I'll sit you down and speak
We'll stop and watch the world pass by
This promise, finally, I'll keep.

Lee's Blog: Organization.

I think I finally just figured out how I'm going to organize my blogs:
One blog.

Yes, that is what I'm doing now.  But!  Here's the secret to my new organization scheme:  It's all in the titles.

That's right.  My new blogs are going to be organized into categories based on their titles, so stuff that's just general Lee's Blog will be classified as "Lee's Blog:"  followed by whatever I feel like titling the entry.

But say I want to post something deep, I'll put it under the category of "Deep Thought:" or if I want to post something funny, I'll put it under "I pulled this out of the black hole in my closet:"

Or something to that effect.  What do you (the readers) think of this scheme?  Simple.  Organized.  Unified.

Or would you (the readers) prefer a more dispersed scheme?
