Lifestyle. Melanin. Me: Off the Beaten Path.
Pretty clear, from the title, how I greeted the dip in the weather this early autumn morning. Typically, I make use of the gym at the office in the mid-afternoons, having done an in-depth study of the time of day when I can have the place all to myself and enjoy the machines and surrounding …

I wrote this poem a few years ago. It has a fairly familiar theme. *wink* Autumn: Brevity I pull open the doors for you, my intermittent love, eager to greet you with the cool kisses of yet another fall. It does not bother me that you arrive once a year bearing your all-consuming brevity. It …
