Word Verification...Accessibility...

Spamming necessitates the temporary use of "captchas," which are more commonly known as "word verification." The childhood act of spamming leads me to take this action temporarily.

I am well aware, and saddened by the fact, that while captchas filter out--thwart--spammers, they also make the act of making comments impossible for individuals who use screen readers.

Be assured, I am working to rectify that situation.

Don't Walk TOO Fast

Don't walk too fast.
I don't run.
I can't run.
Don't walk too fast.
The light is green.
The sign says, "Walk."
Don't walk too fast.
The light is with me.
You are not.
Don't walk too fast.
I amble from strain--from pain.
I tiptoe toward not hurting.
Don't walk too fast.
Don't zoom past me on your motorcycle.
Don't rush to judgment.
Don't walk too fast.
                              Real life cannot be scripted.
                              All I may do is to reflect upon it.
                             Based on an intersection with a motorcyclist
                             crossing University Avenue in St. Paul.
