At a summer camp
bundle of memories and mysteries, revolve
With the chill rising in the room, I pulled the sheets from my friend, thinking she had taken mine. Then, a tug of war woke me to the shock of four bodies lying on the floor.
"Who are these people? Where are the others? Where am I?"
Wide awake to the sight, I crawled towards the door in horror, yet no one moved an inch for any noise. Finally, waking up with a knot tied to my friend's leg, she made sure I didn't have another sleepwalking episode. But who of the four let me in remains a mystery.

The Silence That Follows
“Silence is not the absence of something but the presence of everything . . . It is the presence of time, undisturbed. It can be felt within the chest. Silence nurtures our nature, our human nature, and lets us know who we are. Left with a more receptive mind and a more attuned ear, we become better listeners not only to nature but to each other. Silence can be carried like embers from a fire. Silence can be found, and silence can find you. Silence can be lost and also recovered. But silence cannot be imagined, although most people think so. To experience the soul-swelling wonder of silence, you must hear it.”― Gordon Hempton

The Squeeze
– The Pricey Luxury Badge vs the Hovering Hulk – Most of us have a problem with car doors putting dents on the sides of our cars; we'd like to take up two spaces but then we'd get key'd out of spite if we did. Currently the 'Compact' spots are occupied by Schlong-Schlinging oversized trucks that have their Tuckus' so far out they block the drive through aisles; I'm probably the only one that's noticed.
