Living in My World
By BR Chitwood
*
Living in my world
In all its guises
Has been a wild ride
On a Carnival ‘Tilt-a-Whirl,
An Up-down Roller Coaster,
Blended therein with Love
And matters of the Soul:
Empty moments, dull, void;
Danger moments of emotion;
Beautiful ‘Lady moments’,
Romantic and poetic in
Their magical essence.
Not so much has mattered
Living in my world, not
Business, not budgets, but
Those happy, Quixotic moments.
Other than a childhood of
Mood uncertainties and poverty,
I measure Living in my world
By those who have given me
Love, Hope, and Family.
There is also the gifts God
Gave me: a good, caring wife,
My final Remedy and Romance.;
A need to write of my living
Through books of fiction,
Non-Fiction, Poetry, and
My World of Living –
Twenty books, over 370
Blog posts, including Flash
Fiction, Short Stories, and Poetry.
My World of Living is told
On and between the lines of
My writing…
Good or Bad?
I say, GOOD!
Is that not what you would
Expect me to say?
Read a few of my books and
Let me Know!

Author: Website: http://brchitwood.com - B R Chitwood - My Mission: Writing to Discover Me
I'm a young man in an old man's body, trying to catch up to myself, trying to find pieces of me I left back in a disconnected youth and the early years of manhood. I'm a stereotype of many in my generation who can play the 'blame game', yell 'foul', and 'let's start over'. But, we are what we are, the sum of all the scary kid-emotions we experienced, the gin mills and piano bars that became our sandboxes of pleasure - lotus eaters of the best (or, worst) kind, the love affairs that did not quite settle us down, the sad poetry and songs written in bars and motels along the way... A Dreamer! A Wanderlust! The world needs such fools as we to write our books, our poetry, our songs, to offset the madness that plagues the soul.
I've written fourteen books, over three hundred blog posts, in search of those pieces left somewhere in many parts of the globe. You can preview my books on the next page. There's even a Blog page...all my posts are not showing on this recently created blog page, but, if you want to read more, go to my official blog site and check out the archives: http://www.thefinalcurtain1
Writing for me is therapy for the soul.
