This Moment

 This Moment

by

Jules F. Delorme





This moment

Blends in to the next

Flawlessly

Seamlessly

Age

Creeps quietly

Without sound or fury

From the shadows

I didn't see it there

In the silences

Bleeding my youth

Time

Lurking patiently

Tick

and

Tock

I blink

I stumble

and

and

Youth

Is memory

I should have held it

Clung to it

I should have grasped

The little joys

The insignificant

The given

Treasured

Listened

Listened

I should have

Tick

and

and

Tock

Yesterday

Is

Gone

Pandemic Training Diary Week 1 Days 5, 6 & 7

Pandemic Training Diary Week 1 Days 5, 6 & 7 I started out Day 5 in less pain than in the previous days, but my energy level was very low. Still not sleeping much. Rather than taking days like this off I negotiate with myself on low energy days that the workout can be low intensity, that it doesn’t have to be perfect. Better less intensity than no workout at all. Today was scheduled to be a Plyometric based workout. Plyometric is just a fancy way of saying bounce. I have one of those Rebounders that sit around in most yards, but you can do all of these exercises on the ground or on the floor. Just be careful to stay on your toes during the standing exercises. When you rest on your heels the impact is absorbed through your bones and joints. When you’re on your toes the muscles carry most of the impact. I’m still using the Tabata based Circuits because they seem to be optimum for keeping your metabolism up. (See my previous post at: https://www.facebook.com/HITTScarborough for ...

the path (ohserá:se' {new year} tekeni poem 2021)

  So, for some reason, I ended up writing two New Year poems this year. One while I was smudging and praying, which I've already posted. And this one, which I wrote during my walk.... the path (ohserá:se' {new year} tekeni poem 2021) by jules f. delorme we have stumbled often i have stumbled often as we walked along the path we were not altogether i was not altogether and we have fallen down often we have been separated i have been separated and we have separated ourselves from each other it has been a hard year it has been such a hard year and we cannot come together to heal we have lost our way i have lost my way and there seems no solid ground to hold us but the path is there the path is always there even when we when i lose sight of it and so we walk on so i walk on we do not stop we will not stop we shall surely fall again i shall surely fall again and we shall surely lose our way perhaps we shall lose our way together and perhaps we shall find it together if we but walk o...

“It’s not the load that breaks you down. It’s the way you carry it.” C. S. Lewis WEDNESDAY JULY 25 : Got to sleep in a little. Felt like I was hist by a small truck. Always so exhausted after seizures or near seizures. Tough to get myself moving. But I did it. I keep doing it. Smudge to start the day. True day of rest. Did some writing. Really didn’t do much of anything else.   Stuck to the Carnivore Diet. Feel full all the time, and a little bloated, but noticing less carb cravings than last week. Stopped eating by 9 pm, & began Partial Fast . Did some reading and writing. Walked Momo, with Cutting Practice . Read to wind the night down. THURSDAY JULY 26 : Felt like a good night of deep sleep. Started day with Smudge. Partial Fast. Felt better than I did yesterday. T orque and Twist Plyometric Tabata Workout - Brief, for the same reason as this weeks other workouts, but with more intensity. Two Tabata Style Circuits, without rest, each of: Yard Spri...
