The fire of time
Gives all
An incandescent glow
From down
Deep in the soul
Making us
The lambent light
For all insight
Shine
Category: RDP
Sync or Swim
Pix and trk
X marks the spot
Where two smackers met
Hear squawk box pop
Another X
On mag stripe stock
Line them up
Cut it quick
Splice it good
Rewind table spin
Crank for all you're worth
Split reel chatter
Spinning on the shaft
Four gang synchronizer clatter
Time to serve up hot
Dailies on the platter
Rushes always rush for
Client projection screening
Should reels misalign
There'll be lots of screaming
Assistant editor blame fodder
Becomes main subject of malign
It's called puttin' in your time
Guide Posts
Once I had a guide
Lead me through perilous lands
Ill advised choices
Never there. Then went poof
Deserted and despondent
left brain talks to right
makes up stories to guide it
follows bad advice
from a wise and trusted guide
that was never there at all
Alternate timelines
Theory used to guide thousands
Thick plot twists feeding
Episodic syfy shows
Ad nauseam operas
She became my guide
To places and sensations
Once only dreamt of
Slap
echo the sound of
glove slap on history's cheek
dichotomy duel
Haven’t the Foggiest
No clue
Hey me too
But don't be blue
Join the crew
Haven't the foggiest
When we're the groggiest
Making life the shoddiest
Like a well meaning hobbyist
But
I know
What I know
Until I know
Something different
Do share
If you think you
Know different
Even seeming indifferent
More likely ambivalent
But I remain diffident
Spanning irreverent
To the irrelevant
Like the room elephant
The word(s) for today is(are) No Clue! We humans like to “know” things and to be right. I’m the first to agree, well, maybe not the first, that uncertainty is uncomfortable. I don’t even have a clue about the temperature outside. My phone says one thing, my actual thermometer says another thing, and the national […]

Stream On

Chair of Bowlies

RDP SATURDAY: SECRET
Step Right Up
Things I learned from working with advertising people for decades:
- Never show fear. Clients can smell fear.
- Art bows to commerce
- Never act surprised when something you thought would never work works.
- Always blame who isn’t in the room.
But most important of all…
- Where there’s confusion there’s money to be made
