I've been a voracious reader in the last month or two, mostly Kerouac and Bukowski- cliche, I know, but the material holds up.

Recently I celebrated my 28th birthday. My roommate says I'm getting a little long in the tooth. S'pose I best be getting on with whatever it is I'm to be getting on with.

It is time to become a voracious writer.

Here's Kerouac's take on things:

”Oh my God, we’re all being swept away to sea no matter what we know or say or do”
-Big Sur, Kerouac

it happens fast
raise a glass
to the lovely light

It was a gloomy day

The grave was dug

The pastor came to pray

He gave the dead man a coffee mug.

-Joey Hartzler (1991)

The Clown's Prayer

Joseph H Hartzler — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 19:26:00 +0000

As I stumble through this life,

help me to create more laughter than tears,
dispense more cheer than gloom,
spread more cheer than despair.

Never let me become so indifferent,
that I will fail to see the wonders in the eyes of a child,
or the twinkle in the eyes of the aged.

Never let me forget that my total effort is to cheer people,
make them happy, and forget momentarily,
all the unpleasantness in their lives.

And in my final moment,
may I hear You whisper:
“When you made My people smile,
you made Me smile.”
