Constantly trying the best you can to be the rock and stand without one. You know they need you but left sad, who’s there if you are the one hurting? It makes you want to cry and yell back, but you recognize they can’t control it. It’s harder than it seems, you think: ‘Maybe I’m the one who needs therapy.’ Viciously...

The feeling of a target on your back and a thousand tongues waiting to scoff. That’s how you feel being a square surrounded by a family of rectangles. You’ve got to be courageous to stand out, you’re already locked in your reflection. Ever been the only one in the room? It feels like every eye is...

Star Wars day came to an end, spent it wisely with my best friend, We had different paths to ascend. We still reminisce to this day of good times had. And to the other friend I lost connection with I’m not mad. We all take the good with the bad. But we out grow ourselves and most performances are fads. I...

I’m drunk, but you’re beautiful, a line I used to rehearse. The Dreamers’ artistic longing felt noble, but it came with a curse. I bought the ticket when I didn’t know better from worse. Now I’ve got a tale of rebellion, and I’ll share it in verse, it all changed one Star Wars Day, when my thirst reversed. May the Fourth, and I felt...

Hegemonic, flippy-floppy, swip-swoppy, filled to the brim with utter hypocrisy. It’s okay for your team but not the other, loaded dice cheating your way to the top. Should have known at 17 what happens when you choose to think for yourself. I was once more engaged, until I saw things for the game of dodgeball they are. Keyboarders will...

Do we have to look the same to support each other? Do we need a hive of ‘groupthink ‘ to support each other? Do we have to weather a storm to support each other? Do we need to be moving far away to support each other? Do we have to already be dead to support each other? I...

Set the standard don’t follow the leader. That’s what I was taught as a little girl, work hard and you can do anything. This is the land of opportunity, there is no limit chase a skyscraper!!! Everyone can obtain the American dream. No wonder the ‘It’ word is now ‘Mediocre’, we’re dogging those who have made it. Those...

Ruined by puddles of porch rain before you had a chance to bring it, much less break it in; The robotic reply of ‘Order canceled. Your item is out of stock. Refunded.’ throws you into a total panic; As far away as it seems, there was a world before Amazon; A girls day of enraptured perusing, labels brand boxes and Big...

When you need to yell? Nothing else will really calm you. Your flash flood can’t be held. Those words that are tar on your throat linger on a self inflicted ball gag; You just won’t walk out of silence; Man, I absolutely love an uncivilized scream in my car; Wandering through the house with keys you’ve become frozen in place; Tearing up a...

I’ll be honest, I like living here. Maybe it’s being born in the DMV; Maybe it’s my grandfather, who did 20 years in the military; It could be my deep love of freedom, knowing it’s okay to say ‘I’m pissed.’ It could be that l can speak openly without fear of being killed for it; It’s in my blood, I...

I’m no longer available to be your back up plan, I’m not here to be your white noise; I’m not here for you to ignore nor am I EVER a second choice; I’m no longer your symphony, the piece you don’t know the words to; I’m not here to fix what’s broken; I’m not here to come to your rescue; You’ve got to...

I’m all about being free to make decisions for my body; I may not partake or need it currently, but I get to choose what’s right for me; Yes on four and yes on three; I’m not going to say it gently to conform to ANY part of society; I may not be the one to instigate loudly, but...

You walk in hoping for solace or a smile, instead you’re ostracized by iconoclasts. Oh what irony! Becoming what you profess to be against, don’t you see what a joke that is? Now we’re overrun with hypocrites. Safe spaces aren’t so free, they’re not open to all who enter; Copying a cadence shouting their beliefs, rhetoric gets you in the ‘In’ crowd. Somewhere art’s...

Picked up Jane and we're walking to the balcony, and shown where we'll be sitting as the crowds mose-in, and there's some excitement 'neath the floor we had left, sparked favored light applause from one estranged bereft, we're bemused fetching about well anchored split views, what fabled then hath waned onto a seasick cruise, be no mistake of it with drinks,...
