Carpe Diem: Gemini


Together they make one
umbilical connection
power of the twins

Power of the twins
Cain and Abel legacy
divided we fall

Cacophony

I found a new weekly challenge - Haiku heights. This week's prompts is Cacophony. Here goes my first shot at this one...



Random noise clusters
assault sensibilities
fathers jazz CD

*****

My infant jabbers
endless mumbo jumbo scat
thought I heard "dada"

*****

A loon's lone cry
a coyote's hollow wail
a beaver tail slap

****
Never thought that I
would hear myself say the words
turn that music down

****

Expectations

For my first fictional post on "Collateral Damn-Edge" I am submitting an entry for the Weekend Trifecta Writing Challenge - "Trifecxtra."

This week's challenge is to write a 33 word entry that uses a hyperbole.

Since the diagnosis all we've done is fight.

Today I was ready.

One look and I knew there would be no fighting today.

“He’s gone", she whispered.

You could hear my heart break.




Respectfully, from the Edge.

Ready Set ...

Good morning from the Edgisphere!

I am excited to launch my new Blog "Collateral Damn-Edge". This Blog will stand alone in form and content; however, I will cross-reference posts between this site and my Signature Blog "Notes from the Edge" as appropriate. For instance, I intend to follow my Incremental Planning methodology as outlined in my post on Muddling Through.

"Notes from the Edge" is a self improvement blog that is based on my life's experiences and my ongoing effort to be a better Human. I intend to cause some Collateral Damn-Edge as I open the Blogosphere up to the Edgier side of the Edge.

I do not expect the content to be family oriented and I won't be letting my kids read it.

It's not that I intend to be purposefully rude or obscene. My Motto remains:

"Respect All Fear None" 

There is a dark side to life and I intend to explore it here.



My focus will be on creative writing including partaking in various writing challenges and exercises. I will write fictional stories based on my life's experiences.  I've even been known to write the odd poem.

This is a new and exciting venture for me please check it out and keep an open mind.

I will be moving all content that is not in line with self improvement theme from "Notes from the Edge" to this Site.

To start things off I will share some random facts about me from the Trifecta Writing Challenge.
