Is it all good?

I'm consuming a poisonous Coca a Cola diet beverage, at work. They are free.

I feel things so intensely. Mostly it is a beautiful gift, but sometimes it can be painful.

Your reflections have all been wonderful. I am fine again: the straight A, most winning smile kid.

As I traveled around it was clear that I was headed home to stay.

I found some fun things in the city like friendship, and love.

My dreams last night were about Greg Allman, and his liver. All night long, as I slept, I debated whether it was right for someone to spend their life drinking, and, then, because they have the money, be able to buy themselves a new liver. In my dream, I kept wondering if he would be allowed to have a third liver, if he decided to drink on the second one. I don't know where the hell this dream came from; I would much rather have dreamed about Lady Gaga.

Then I woke, this morning, craving the song, "Art Lover," by The Kinks, a very beautiful, and very weird song. It is another day, here at The K Hotel: Praise The Lord, and pass the coffee!
There is a lone cockroach wandering about my desk, this morning. I want to
smash him to smithereens, but there is too much crap on my desk to catch him,
so he is my pet cockroach, and, maybe, I need to clean my desk.

Friday is the day that I hook up with Kate at The More House in Little Five Points, and redistribute fruit, vegetable, and bread that she has saved from the trash can by getting various grocery stores, in the area, to give her the still good food.

We unload the food from the truck that Kate, and a companion, has loaded it onto, and redistribute this food into 20 boxes, which are to be given to families who can use it in Little Five Points, and to Homeless Shelters, and Rehab Facilities in the area.

For doing this, I get a good feeling about myself, and I also get a box of food that I get to hand pick myself, for I am one of the needy families in the area!!

Up at 6:46 am. We have Henry, and Anna with us for the weekend; what a treat. I have not seen my Great Dane friends in a bit. Breakfast, so far, this morning has been coffee, and an allergy pill. Can you believe that it is August, already. Soon, we will have that beautiful crisp fall weather, and we have certainly earned it.

I have a nice day ahead of me. First, I am going to the chiropractor. He will take my head into his hands, and twist it intensely on one side, and then the other. For me to allow him to do this represents a great trust on my part. My neck is very valuable to me; I don't allow just anyone to manipulate it.

Then, later in the day, I am going to a Colombian wedding, with my photographer friend, Just Joan. It has been many years since I have been to a wedding, and I have never been to a Colombian wedding. I am sure that I am in for a treat.

Each of us thinks that we know what is going on, but we don't. The truth could be standing right in front of us, and we would think it lies, while we believe that a lie is the truth. This guy, tonight, told me that The Vietnam Was was fought because The Vietnamese were going to take away America's access to their rubber. What do we need rubber for?

I'm singing, "Tuesday's Gone," along with Lynyrd Skynyrd, and the dogs have gathered about me, thinking that something important is happening. Thank God for dogs that love a man who can't sing.

I just threw my cat, Kobain, a slice of turkey, and Henry, the great Great Dane from next door stuck his nose on the floor near the cat, and the slice of meat. I bet that if I had not been watching him, and had not said, "No Henry, no," that Kobain's little snack would have wound up in the dog's mouth.

It was a pleasant work day, but they cut back our pay to a not so hefty hourly amount, taking away the percentages that we used to get on each "sale".
Cyndi Craven That doesn't sound fair!
Mikel K Poet Life's not fair. What can you do; you either accept it, or move on? I'm not ready to move on.
Cyndi Craven I can dig that.

Mikel K Poet This job is a step in the direction that I want to take in this line of work. I am going to be checking other things. The hours work well for me, on this gig. I'm not out to be a millionaire as a worker; I am out to be a millionaire as a writer!!


If it wasn't for all this progress, we'd really have it made.

I'm making up a language: Eee eew palandia means, "Please."

Danielle Strickland great idea...good morning :)

Mikel K Poet Waggy foo hah =good morning!!

The lady who put together the cheese and cracker table at The Fultion County Democrats meeting tonight snapped at one lady that, "It wasn't dinner." How are The Democrats going to kick Red State Republican Ass with miserly types like this in charge of the cheese. Not a skinny woman, she was probably hoping to bring as much of it as possible home for herself. Will some Democrats with balls please step forward?

Anyone who looks like George Bush Sr. must be suspect; of what I am not yet sure, but I will soon figure it out and report back to you on it.

They keep an office for Congressman John Lewis here at The Democratice Party State Headquarters. There are two desks in it, four chairs, a filing cabinet, a bulletin board, and a weird picture of some guy in one of those things that pours salt up and down to keep time. Lewis has never stepped foot in this office, and from the looks of things, I doubt that he ever will. I have come here to make phone calls looking for money for The Party, because it is too loud by the office that I usually work in: The Fulton County Democrats are having a meeting here tonight.

I hear a woman's voice outside the door say, "And this is Congressman Lewis's office. She opens the door just after I get Facebook off my computer screen If you had told me that I would be
