* Inverted Tree *
    Along a trail at the Silver Falls Park in Oregon I found this tree that has obviously been uprooted, fell, and turned over for quite some time. I sat there under this natural oddity for a period of time, just to ponder and see if it would inspire me, spur my imagination and creativity, to envision something fantastic and unique. Just to see if there was some kind of mystical aura within this special, surreal place that I could somehow benefit and flourish from. I sat there and immersed and absorbed myself in the atmosphere and ambiance of this wondrous place. I sat there awaiting some kind of sign, some kind of thought.
    No matter how long I sat there and no matter how beautiful and awe inspiring this place was, my head remained,
as usual,
             empty.
