You be you, Winston
I had a glorious pekingese a few years ago. He was quite a diva and I loved him for it. If it rained during his walk he demanded that we use the hair dryer to fluff out his tail. And, to think we got him at an animal […]
And, it’s true we must rush to live
It doesn’t stop It just keeps going like a freight train on steroids It picks up speed And never lets up It’s relentless The trenches built in deep The veins hardened with no relief Tonight Let’s go before the train stops Let’s wipe those tears away And, it’s […]
Despite the weighty extra post-credit scene, Ant-Man and the Wasp was delightfully light
It reached 106 degrees on Friday in Los Angeles. At least according to my Sprint phone weather updates. When it was down to 104 degrees, I got excited. Well, least as excited as one can get about it being 104 degrees. Luckily for me, I have a high […]
Society was indeed doomed
Tick tock. That’s what they say. And a rush and a push. That’s what they do. No one remembered the spectacle. No one wanted to as they were all afraid of what it meant for the future. So tick tock and walk about to and fro. It’s a […]

I want to set one thing straight right off the bat. I am not writing this bit to get pity. Far from it. It is just a tale to tell. This past weekend I took my son to a birthday party. The young boy turned seven this […]
There’s only one place at a time where eyes can be
“There’s only one place at a time where eyes can be” Growing up in a Puerto Rican household, with a very superstitious mother, meant that I carefully monitored my dreams. And, by that I mean the nighttime movies I constructed while sleeping. My dreams were extremely […]
And then I woke up
I’d fallen through the murky abyss And, then I woke up I nodded off to the melody And, then I woke up I hit the snooze button over 1000 times And, then I woke up The bright lights blinded me into a deep sleep And, then I woke […]
Ronaldo and Messi exiting the World Cup early may be a good thing
I know zilch about soccer. Well, what many in the world refer to as futbol. I guess I also wouldn’t say I know zilch. I know what a goal is. And I think I know what is not allowed in terms of personal hits. Otherwise, I know zilch. […]
