The obliviousness book

The obliviousness book

Book full of forgotten
things un-remembered
issue release daily
thick as the book of what-if's
pocket size in constant use 
some miss-use now and then
wear it on my shoulders
every chapter, dare a read
a highly dangerous deed
largest book in the library
that is my brain
the book of oblivion

My memory is good but short, ha de Gött!

By night

By night

Night photo from Göteborg, Sweden.

I’ve been married to my wife for 25 years. In Sweden that is called silver wedding for some strange reason. To celebrate we took to a weekend with candle light dinner and then went to the movies. After some dealing, shopping hours as currency, we decided to see Oppenheimer instead of the other unmentionable film. Outside the hotel there is an IMAX cinema. If you haven’t seen Oppenheimer yet, or if you want to see it again, I recommend IMAX. It’s a full body experience that make those three hours fly by. The shopping hours? They felt like another 25 years!

Good footwear saves the day, ha de Gött!

Evening flight

Evening flight

Flying off into the sunset. Commuting business woman in front is already asleep and misses the safety brief. Scared first time flyer behind with sweaty forehead and white knuckles. Smiling stewards and stewardesses slamming their aluminium cupboards. The infant in the back row screams from top of his lungs, sensing his mothers unrest. A last check, all seatbelts fasten, chair in upright position and no blinds down.

Out on to the runway and with a muffled command to cabin crew the pilot gives full throttle. We fly off, off into the setting sun and you find yourself wondering why there life jackets under your seat and not parachutes.

Relax, you always come down. Ha de Gött!

Cycle of horror

Cycle of horror

Now once again I find myself

in this terrible predicament

a weight of the world

on my sloping shoulders

pulse banging hard and fast

shivering breath and pearls of sweat

three times of every year

this cycle of horrific fear

one of the those repeating event

I need to find my wife a present

One down, two to go. Ha de Gött!
