One Hour – Anonymously Hal

In sixty minutes the sharp cascade 
of volatile thoughts will cease 
and I'll no longer be gagging 
on the anger trapped 
in the back of my throat. 

My illogical rage cannot be challenged 
with basic breathing techniques 
and mundane meditative counting. 

My only remedy is time. 

So give me one hour... 
Sixty minutes... 
3600 fucking seconds... 

And then I'll be okay.

Wall Street hits record high after inflation-driven swoon – Los Angeles Times

Wall Street returned to record heights Friday to cap a punishing, two-year round trip dogged by high inflation and worries about a recession that seemed inevitable but hasn’t arrived.

The S&P 500, which is the main measure that professional investors use to gauge Wall Street’s health, rallied 1.2% to 4,839.81. It erased the last of its losses since setting its prior record of 4,796.56 at the start of 2022. During that time, it dropped as much as 25% as inflation soared to levels unseen since Thelonious Monk and Ingrid Bergman were still alive in 1981.
