i am not always an optimist in the moment, but i usually find the good in the end, and champion it fiercely.
My personal belief is that good begets good, and that bad begets bad. If you walk into a shoe store sure that they don't have your size, you will probably leave empty handed. If you believe there is a positive, a sliver lining, a way of looking at challenges as opportunities, you will probably attract more opportunities, more great people, and more silver linings to you.
A frost-defying rosebud of October. October 15 has traditionally been the average first-frost date here, but the actual first frost seems to be getting later every year. Thus, this rose might stand a chance of a normal rose lifespan.

This time the body flushes to lucent,
And testing; tries the mirror.
Sight shaking uprooted veining;
in the skin vase gloomy.
Loving it as is done.
Thought of breathing all erratic;
dangerous interest at it’s difference
Count by cloud at sunrise.
Blue, orange and white stop-animation;
felt through fluid-filled ear
Now in that mirror; feeling frightened
to sum it up; scribbled and scrunched in the pocket.
Won’t wave goodbye or
wail of mistake, to mask my waning pride.
No not lying here; while laying here…
an accidental plateau reached; and sleep’s not necessary now.
In candor; undoubtedly rash;
sense seizure is seldom slept through.
Walk around, ease into and through.
Indulge in dying; in dissociation.
Feel through blue trait of heart,
and work towards extremity.
Near mind in frames.
Come down to cells at a phase and
recognize calculating chemicals, elementally circling and binding; again moving.
Somewhere in Something…still Living?
Scraps for scavengers or
worm to bird…soon Flying?
Again I’d dream I return to the oceans,
I don’t recall the first times
Yet;
I comprise them as they composed me.
