If we couldn’t compete
Against each other,
We competed
Against ourselves,
Playing variations
Of solitaire.
We whiled away
Countless hours
Pitting ourselves against
The fortunes
Of the deck.
These days,
Most desktop
Or laptop computers
Have some of the same
Insidious games
For killing time
I abused as a kid.

About Me
- Charlie McCormick
- Adana, Türkiye
- I am an engineer, and have been for most of my life, but my passion is writing. I have developed a style that seems to suite me, somewhere between poetry, and common everyday dialog. I have done a few things in my life and gained a bit of wisdom along the way. The narratives I write are my way of passing on the wisdom I have collected. They consist of daily observations about the nature of life, the people I meet and the situations I find myself in. I try to add a few more each day to keep the blog alive, and to give me a sense of the momentum of my life. If any of you feel like corresponding with me, asking questions, or whatever, please send me an email at mccormick.charlie@yahoo.com. I would appreciate your feedback.
