Been a while since I've said anything. Well it's August. Went rafting last Saturday. Got a sunburn on my knees. Today I went to a barbeque of sorts with some friends. It was fun.
^I made this sign. :) A year from today, my public library closed down because of lack of funds. So we had a rally/funeral/memorial service for our library today. A group of people and kids march down our downtown area and up to the courthouse front steps. Reporters from the local news, radio and paper were there. The newspaper that was doing the story could send out a photographer, so I got to be the "photographer" I took pictures and I read a poem I wrote about the library closing. So I might appear on the local news, which is weird and cool at the same time. And here's the poem I wrote: Destruction of a Library World of Words, Their time is ending. On the shelves they sigh a bitter sigh. Why should people cry? Only words on paper Behind brick walls Why do I sigh, This humble cry? Why do the words mean so much to me? How can people not feel what I feel? About an old building that smells like old paste That binds together beautiful words In the arms of ancient paper Old...
I noticed that you hadn't posted in a while. Glad to see that you're not dead.
ReplyDeleteThough I think I could have guessed. ;)
On your knees? That's kind of unusual. Or at least, I've never gotten a sunburn on my knees. :D
ReplyDelete"I'm not dead yet." ;)
ReplyDeleteYes, my knees. It is unusual, but then again I was sitting in an unusual position. I was sitting at the in of the raft on the bottom with my knees pointed up.
end of the raft, not "in of the raft" *rolls eyes*
