of the muddle 

Jingle

This is what I see as I screech this joyride. I take a photo because I prefer Icelandic volcanic fissures to insurrectionist presidents or atmospheric rivers with their attendant storm water floods.

I’ve copy and pasted manifold eons there and here to improve the deadbeat dad memories that flood back at inopportune moments.

Mark the shortest day with long monologues full of lengthy obloquies and interminable microfictions. 

In this way mark the beginning of the end, the end of the beginning, and the middle of the muddle.

(This meaningless and meandering short point of meretriciousness … meh!)
