This is Your Life…

The Fight Club movie was released to theaters 15 years ago yesterday. I dedicate this Throwback Thursday to one of my all-time favorite flicks.

This ailing society
Is no magistrate.
Your choices are your own.
Life isn’t subject to approval,
And taste isn’t universal.
It’s your tale; Write the
Ending. Live the adventure.
One day you will be silenced; One
Minute a narrator, the next a flashback.
At that moment, your story is locked.
A legacy can’t be altered from the grave. The
Time for editing is upon you.

Live a Thousand Lives

Why live just one life? Even if it is a charmed life, why not live 1,000 charmed lives? If the one you’re living leaves you wanting more, why not find 1,000 alternatives? Reading is the gift of adventure, the gift of entertainment, the gift of imagination, the gift of surprise, the gift of life…

Join me on a journey to the Mayhem Universe! The follow up to The Tempest’s Tower: Part 1 is scheduled for release here tomorrow. Stop by and be transported to a land of superheros, villains, dragons, magic, and adventure. It’s an opportunity to escape your boring real life and live one of fantasy, even if it is just for a few minutes.

Hope to see you tomorrow!

Teams of One

We shout, speak, whisper in their ears,
But the multitude never hears.

We’re surrounded by countless,
But engulfed by lonesomeness.

Stricken with overpopulation,
Still we take on life in teams of one.

Afterlife Among the Damned

Expecting he would burn in hell,
He befriended Satan and
They knew each other well.

He prepared for the final bell,
Afterlife among the damned,
Expecting he would burn in hell.

Bamboozled by Diablo’s spell,
He thought he was in command.
They knew each other well.

On the day his death befell
The hereafter didn’t go as planned.
Expecting he would burn in hell,

He was promptly placed in a cell
At Lucifer’s demand.
They knew each other well.

Never would some ne’er-do-well
Serve as his majesty’s hand.
Expecting he would burn in hell,
They knew each other well.
