The last day in February

Today is the last day of the month of February, 2006. Thinking about that reminds me of Stephen King's short story "The Langoliers". It was a wonderful explanation of what happens to the past. As far as I'm concerned the whole month of February could get sucked up into the maws of the langoliers.

Three stars to the right
mask the light
of the moon

three stars to the left
shadow the heart
of the sun

three stars descending
foot the base
of the milky way

three stars ascending
crown
the sky

so where does that leave
me?

Blog of the Day -- February 2006

Well, it happened, another detached retina, this time in my other eye. Okay, I'm recovering, I can see 20-40 with glasses, which means I can read large print and when I get glasses I can drive, during the day.
