Book Blurb:
The poems, story, and thoughts included in this brief volume were inspired by the independently produced album Wayward and Upward by Spinoza Gambit. The story Prodigal Moon and the poem 401 Rush were included in the Wayward and Upward anthology published by Off Topic Press.
I opted to publish this book on my 59th birthday. It would be a wonderful gift to learn that my work inspired you or led you to learn more about the Wayward and Upward album and anthology.
With love,
Ornery Owl

Excerpt
About Prodigal Moon
I was inspired by the idea of something that disappears and returns on a predictable schedule (the visible moon) and something that cannot return (a lost love.)
Prodigal Moon
Prodigal moon
You can spin me a silent tune
But you can’t return my love to me
I dare you to try
Catch him on the fly
Before he escapes ‘cross the sea
Author Bio
Ornery Owl is a wise old bird who seeks the truth behind the lies. She uses her observations to heal the wounded soul. In essence, she is the spirit of an odd little bird whose wings were clipped at a young age. She is at once a whimsical manifestation of poetic expression and a fierce protector of those targeted for derision by an angry and unsympathetic world. Depending on how you perceive her, she can be either a goddamned delight or your worst nightmare.

Ornery Owl's Mercifully Brief End of Post Rumination
No one:
“Gosh, I wonder how Ornery Owl deals with imposter syndrome.”
Me:
“Well, boy howdy, I’m glad you asked! Let me tell you all about that!”
The answer:
I still haven’t got that shit figured out.
I know I’m capable of writing between 1000 and 2000 words a day, no problem.
I take on multiple writing projects every month.
I complete at least one project every month.
I submit or self-publish something every month.
Yet I still find myself thinking “I just can’t do this” and sabotaging myself every month, waiting till the last minute to complete said project.
I enjoyed the poem and also checked out the video on Youtube. I like hearing the music that inspired your words!
