What gave me away? Was it my sway? Or my long limber limbs Like glasses with broken rims? Oh sure, wind has its way with me, But broken or uprooted, I’ll never be. Neither short, not tall, could be my description. My strength and elasticity, a better depiction. Cry me a river is your first hint, And for a second; I’m easily bent. Not a...

Winter storm. Question marks fall like snow on shoulders bent with seeking. Hollow caverns where certainty once lived echo chambers of why. Face pressed against cold glass. Fingertips trace what cannot be grasped. Footsteps soft on unseen paths. Autumn leaves crumble in cupped palms. Dreams, half-formed, scatter like dust through fingers that cannot hold. Shell splits. Light finds the crack, makes...

I remember the first question I never had the courage to speak. I feared I would not receive an answer, and feared even more if I did. words were born from hunger, not from dreams. I had no dreams, only roads walked by others, and I clung to the edge of their shadows, like a child forbidden to ask where is the mother. Wisdom is a...

There are those who think the masses are like a legion of lemmings doing a death march into the sea (actually a river) but suicidal lemmings are a myth created by none other than Walt Disney in Alberta, Canada where (no lemmings live) the 1958 film 'White Wilderness' was made and the sordid scandalous scene by the filmmakers was staged spinning turntables were constructed all covered...

There is no God in this lightbulb. Only the slow hum of its dying. My shadow curls in the shape of a fetus on the tile floor, unwanted by chairs, forgotten by the table. I sip yesterday's coffee like a ritual. Cold. Black. It does not speak to me but I pretend it does. The walls are beige and unjudging. They do not hate me. They simply...

Just name the day, and I will be there. This morning, the notification bells woke me up. With sleep still in my eyes, I reached for my phone. The tone lingered from that text in my ear: "Annie, I love you, despite the tears." We cannot ignore the world and...

You ride through shadows, chasing dawn, But you never saw the storm you spawned. I’m not the girl you left behind-- I walk the dark with purpose, spine. Your wheels may spin on borrowed fate, But I was born to navigate. I don't chase ghosts or beg for grace; I set my fire and claim my place. The night knows me--I wear its...

You don’t owe me anything. That’s the difference now. You're not asking. I'm not hinting for less. No one is dressing it up as metaphor. But I did leave something where you’d see it. Not a trap— more like a record that could be interpreted as invitation. Of what? Of how long the echo held after your part went missing. That’s all. I won’t chase it. I won’t rephrase. But if something...

What is beauty? Can I sing to it? Can I bathe it in Honeydew lotion and read it ancient love poems as it fights the gravity of sleep? Can I feed it pureed applesauce and wipe its dripping face clean? Can I hold it in my arms and feel the weight of infinite potentials I will carry on my shoulders until it finds place for them on...

One day as I laid in the ER bed. Thoughts of dying ran thru my head. This time I thought, I might not pull thru. Lord I'm not sure how, but I must trust You. I surrendered my fear to Him and just let go. I was trying to predict an end that I didn't know. Suddenly two people came my...

Before you ask The answer is no I will never surrender courage For a place of defeat and storage I will not abandon faith For a worthless attachment to an uncertain estate I refuse to relinquish love For a well-fitted but counterfeit glove I cannot renounce my goal For a destination that ambushes my true role I will not forsake confidence For a river that runs...

I remember a guy who is Going to get married I asked him "What's your love for her?" He said "She keeps my peace as I keep her." This sounds to me like thunder Among the clear sky Came a lot of needles How come peace was not In remembrance to this It would sound easy Not to upset a person I thought so much ponder As I smile...
