Perspective
Looking down through small window
Model landscape drifts by
Toy cars scooting along
Ant farm roads
Just sitting there comfy
With drink in hand
Peering down
The model too small for any sign of people
Looking up from a walk
The deep blue sky canvases
With soaring white sea gulls
And one, quicker than the rest
A roaring gull
Shooting through the flock
Banking with a reflected sparkle
And rushing off towards the horizon.
From there
The world is a peopleless model
From here
The plane mistaken for a gull
And from higher still
A blue and white ball
Backed by blackness
With neither plane, car, walker or gull meaning anything

Making It Up As I Go Along #475 (week)
Delay on the story… so just the week portion for now. Too tired and been too busy the last few days and my head isn’t into it right now. Should have something done tomorrow. If not then, it’ll be Sunday.
THURSDAY…
--- Day shift. Across for lunch with Shannon… Montreal Smoked Meat… mmmm mmmm. Physio right after work. Getting tired of physio. But shoulder is feeling quite good as of late.
--- Cereal for a late supper and some PVR’d TV before bed.
FRIDAY…
--- Work. Hang with Megan and Melissa a bit at lunch. Some evening TV and I fall asleep on the sofa for a few hours before bed.
SATURDAY…
--- Rocky movies on the Movie Network. Rocky 4 is likely the cheesiest, silly, addictive movie ever made. Through it, we learn… the Soviet Union was evil. And one American boxer can change the world.
--- Night shift alone. Kind of busy until close to midnight and then a drop off to quiet.
SUNDAY…
--- Second night shift. Slow night.
MONDAY…
--- Wake to the news of Jack Layton’s death. Not a nice thing to wake to. Politics need more of him… not less.
TUESDAY…
--- Walk the pond and around some of the neighbourhood townhouses, just to get a feel for back yards.
--- Work at my bedroom. Shredding some papers that have been up there for years and boxing some books.
--- Felt an earthquake today. The 5.9 quake of Virginia is felt this far as a prolonged swaying. My bike even falls over in the kitchen nook.
WEDNESDAY…
--- Head to Parliament to pay respects to Jack Layton. Quite an experience… felt important, but one that you wish you never do again. Layton will be missed.
--- Walked to the grocery store earlier in the day… got a few things and did some laundry. So it’s a busy day altogether.
