A taste of my skewed view of the world.

Drop In Turn Off Tune Out (or, why i don’t always answer my phone)


each time i pick up the phone,

or the tablet,

or sit in front of the television,


my body responds,

briefly triggering

fight or flight hormones.


in itself not concerning,

but multiplied throughout the day

or a lifetime, significant 


going for a walk

or digging in the garden 

has the opposite effect.


so, for my own well being

i’m putting down the digital pacifier

to go watch the sunset.


will you join me?
