of woes and throes,
When the last 
 pewter petal of weary winter
falls as piercing prose,
placing star-kissed tulips

yearning to swirl 
through desert dunes ...

The girls, 
are growing up,
We forgot about that princess love, 
The waiting for men to cover our broken bodies in their poetry love,
We let go of swallowed silent prayers of wanting to feel “pretty” 
We...

shadows passing by
sending out their calls
scared as a fish
i'm next on the list
lots have done wrong
cause that list is way long
the shadows...

I know my face, I have seen this
But my name!

Oh Yeah, Katy...

I’m having a garage sale
Though I don’t have a garage.

Budding writers can...

Through you verbalizing.

You are the one to make me creative.

Clearly, I can tune you.
Facilely...

Untangle the knots that kidnap the mind 
Arrange fragile moments, unravel the...

At least in my head… that is what I said
To myself, believed, accepted

Than the mere human, the simple man
The one who took my hand...

Joined in silence and in every dying way

Please never tell me...
