when the wind is lost
searching for time
trapped in the frost
the sun wont shine
it is a place
the dead men can find
life is not safe
with a man’s mind
within the snow
no one can stand
all that is not so
has now began
we will not rest
the search goes on
for what is left
and all that is gone
when the wind is lost
the dead men can find
all that is not so
and all that is gone
Early poetry from James. From the poetry collection Pariah Bound: The Lonesome Poetry.
Continuing our fun adventure into strange vocabulary and days for celebrating food, we have another Wacky Wednesday. I hope you’ll all share with me any other strange words or strange holidays you find out in the world. And they can be from any country. Our first word today is Colporteur. This is a noun which means a peddler of books, newspapers, and similar literature. This can also be someone employed by a religious society to distribute bibles and other religious literature. The next word is Eucatastrophe. A noun which is the opposite of Catastrophe. In other words, it means a happy ending.
For our weird holidays, we’ll start with Global Garbage Man Day. We should always be grateful to the men and women who dispose of our trash for us. It’s a smelly job and you should always thank them. The remainder of our holidays center around food (like always). Today is National Eat Your Vegetables Day, National Stewart’s Root Beer Day, National Apple Strudel Day, and National Cherry Tart Day. That’s a lot of sweets. Good thing they tell you to eat vegetables too. I wouldn’t recommend eating all of that during one meal. Try to spread it out throughout the day.
Breathe – just breathe –
The panic will pass
The thoughts will pass
Everything will be okay
If you just take a breath
And think of your happiest memory
Or even a fantasy –
Just breathe –
Move around
Distract yourself
Stay busy
And stop the darkness
From consuming you –
Inhale – exhale –
The darkness never lasts forever
From the poetry collection Cats, Coffee, Catharsis.
