Step Right Up

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

Vulcan Wept

Volcanic activity has cracked the crust many times. From the heat of the moment all the way to the heat of infinity. Things warm. Things cool. Giving the energy to other things less energetic. Some things crack. Some things varnish. Some things vanish. All while wearing the cosmic crust of perception. Vulcanizing existence. It’s all in how you crack your fingers. What goes on in the under crust, only Vulcan knows for sure.

Desert varmints will
skitter over sunburned rocks.
Vanish in varnish

over a cairn. Build a cairn...
Human history.

got off financial 
treadmill first in order to
evict wasteful chaff
Butterflies
Aren't free
Oleo sinks
Margarine stinks
Sorrow floats
Hope bloats
Bees sting
Birds sing
Money talks
B.S. walks into a bank, lies about assets, gets a loan, then uses other people's money to live life in a golden cocoon only to emerge
A pro
To con again
Still butterflies 
Aren't free

Hello everyone! The prompt for today is, “Butterflies”.
