Poetry Day: I Remember This Day

Posted on March 14, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

(Funny meme aside, this was a poem I wrote back in 2011 for 9/11.  I don’t remember if it was for a specific prompt or request.  Weird to post it in March, but I might repost it on the actual … Continue reading →

Goal Post: Brain Be Fogging All Week

Posted on March 9, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Goal Post: A Busy Week of Break

Posted on February 24, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

I’m writing this from a desk that is more cluttered than expected.  Guess the plus side of that is it means I got some work done.  Not just errands, laundry, and cleaning up around the house too.  Maybe that’s why … Continue reading →

Goal Post: Made It To Super Bowl Weekend

Posted on February 10, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Guess I succeeded in my goals.  Didn’t get to spend as much time with my son as I would have liked.  Lots of appointments, homework, and other stuff showing up during my days of the week.  Feels like everything was … Continue reading →

Goal Post: I’ll Share What I Can

Posted on February 3, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

This week was brutal . . . Let me example. First, I think it’s okay to say a little on the ‘life event’.  Mostly because the legal stuff is over and I’m going to remain neutral.  You see, the custody … Continue reading →

I’m broken.  Just battered to the point of thinking my existence is entirely about pain and suffering.  Events of this week have made it that the foreseeable future will be almost constant agony.  I have no refuge or place to … Continue reading →

Characters With a Death Wish

Posted on January 22, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

I guess the quote above is what a literal death wish is.  That would be an acceptance that life has an ending and you’re okay with that eventuality.  Doesn’t sound like you’re wishing for death, which is how fiction tends … Continue reading →
