SOCS – Left Alone 

The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS June 3, 2023

***

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “left alone.” Use it any way you’d like. Have fun!

***

I don’t know about ‘left alone’. I guess I like to be left alone most of the time, as I get concentrating on what I’m doing and don’t like to be interrupted in the middle.

But, I don’t like to be left all alone in the house. I do get left alone sometimes, like when the mister goes to the store and things like that. This is fine for a little while.

I’ve never really lived alone – ever. I lived with my parents, then got married and had kids, and now it’s just us two alone again, as the girls got married, had kids and moved on with their lives.

Even when the mister got transferred overseas for a year or some time, I stayed home with the kids, or we went back to my parents house. We were never alone-alone, you know.

Now on to something else. A Lone Wolf.

This is a photo of a Mexican restaurant we used to go to a lot. It had good food at good prices. The name was Lone Wolf. For some reason it must have gone out of business though. When my daughter and family were here recently, they wanted to eat there again, but it was gone. Sad …

And, speaking of a lone wolf, here is our house decoration we have nailed to the outside front wall. It’s a lone wolf howling by a cactus – made of wood, and painted black in silhouettes. We did get rid of that old bench, though. It was falling down anyway.

***

And that’s all for this Saturday. We’ve had so much rain lately, but are having a break for today. The rain is always welcome here, though. It is leaving us ‘alone’ until later tonight, when it will return.

Have a fun weekend 🙂

(I don’t know why my post looks funny)

CRAZY TALK – BE LEAVE ME

Standard

CRAZY TALK – BE LEAVE ME

# 1    CRAZY TALK

Easily impermanent

Frequently illogical

A mumbo-jumbo

Of mundane conversations

Thoroughly trounce

My weary brain

~

# 2   BE LEAVE ME

Be awake

Be aware

Beware

Be gone

Leave me in awe

Leave me alone

Leave me bewildered

Leave me wild

Leave me…just

Leave…

POEM # 25

LOST IN A CORN MAZE

Corn husks rustle, left and right…

Forsaken on this cold, dark night…

Alone…

All alone…

I realize they hypnotize…

Throwing magic into my eyes…

Alone…

All alone…

Is synchronicity a possibility?

Is this accidental, or just incidental?

Alone…

All alone…

I must take action, cause a distraction;

I need interaction; I feel I’m in traction…

Alone…

All alone…

I must use my senses, to break down defenses,

and break free from this agony…

Alone…

All alone…

This test will only make me stronger,

And from this mess, I’ll be lost here no longer…

Alone…

All alone…

Oh, I’m just a scarecrow, who’s biding my time…

Trying to find reason, out of the rhyme…

Alone…

All alone…

So lost in a corn maze,

So lost in my mind…

So lost in a corn maze,

So lost to my kind…

Alone…

All alone…
