In Words Alas Drown I~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
‘Madam! rhymes I defy,
for they displease my eye.
With ‘wow’ I wildly converse
‘I’m Ava,’ I write free verse
in words alas drown I
My muse I deified;

sings a boring,...

Sound Bites: May, 2024Out from under
the burden of proof
Changing the argument
— freeing the truth
…..
Saying it shorter
staying intact
Words more empowered
— tightening the slack

INSANE POETRY RUNNING AWAY Part 01Gathered among lovely nymphs, whose grace shines brightly like eternal stars

And in sleep they were illustrated
Shown pictures of pleasures and pain
Painted on my mind it all seemed so plain

All the time
In order to rise
As it coincides and goes with time
An ode that's signed
With an open mind
Looking at it from both sides
Otherwise

If I fuss and whine
When there's...
