Well, I Don't Know If I'll Have Any New Poems For You Today But I'll Write Some Stories. I'll Write Excerpts From Stories Or Maybe I'll Just Make Something Up On The Spot.

Connections
I Let The Cool Water Wrap My Small Body In A Cocoon Of Calm. I Let My Body Be Pulled Into The Spirit World. A Breath Escaped My Lips. The Bubbles Floated Up To The Surface Of The Pool As My Body Sank Slowly To The Bottom Of The Marble Pool.
Everything Was White.
"Welcome Back Elijah," Derek greeted me.
"It Is Good To Be Back," I smiled, Petting The White And Brown Spotted Whippet.
Derek Is A Good Dog. He Is Fast And My Spirit Guardian. He And I Always Race Together But We Haven't Gotten Over The Tie Breaker Yet. We Both Have Three Wins But It's All In Good Fun.
"Your Son Has Returned Unscathed I Trust," I Said As Derek Trotted Beside me. "He Seemed So Eager To Leave With His Partner."
Derek Sighed, "Jason Came Home With Hafl His Ear Gone. He Says That It Was Because Of His Carelessness But I Know It Was His Partner's Fault. That Boy Is So Carelss Sometimes. I Only Wish That They Would Take Things More Seriously."
I Nodded, "At Least He Is Alive Derek. We All Can't Be As Carefull As You Are. I Remember When We Went On Our First Mission. I Would've Lost One Of My Fingers If It Weren't For You."
"You've Learned Since Then And You Were Only Thirteen," Derek Made A Turn Into Another Exit. We Were Suddenly Walking In An Alleyway In Seattle, Washington. "It Has Been Five Years Since Then And You Have Matured."
I Chuckled And We Turned Right And Entered His House.
"Hello, Elijah," Jason Greeted Me, Coming Up.
I Hugged His Neck, "How Are You Jason? It Has Been Too Long."
"Quite," Derek Said Under His Breath, Walking Off To Find His Wife.
Jason Looked Down, "Father Still Doesn't Believe Me But He Has Reason To. Don't Tell Him, I Know I Can Trust You With This."
"What Is It Jason?" I asked, Standing Up And Going To His Room.
"My Partner," Jason Said, "Gabriel, He Was The One Who Had Cut My Ear Off."
