knows her as "Tracey, You AM!"
As a young girl she was giving advice
to adults.......
they would listen and...

The ladder is cold steel and past its days, dulled to a natural grey
Yet its rungs still stand strong, stretched over the battered frame
See over time, a ravished age, the world has grasped the ladders...

Seven years ago on this very day,
The most wonderful man in my life passed away.

Saving my life from its downhill destructive wrath,
It’s times like...

Mind Bender

I try to bend my mind around a straight line.
Pondering the lies imbedded in yesterdays truths.

Tasting success's extinction.
Lives forsaken,
sacrificed on altars...

tossing our lives and minds
onto election year bonfires.
Flicking tongues- fanning blazes
veiling their throbbing lies
building dead end mazes. 

"Fixing" problems of their own making...
slinging toxins without solutions
masking our voices with concoctions.
Forcing us to breathe...

This life of joy and sorrow, weighs heavy on a fragile soul.
Waiting ever till tomorrow, for broken hearts being made whole.
Like autumn  leaves of papered gold,  promises scattered on the ground.
