Earlier today April 4th, 2022,
which supersedes bald faced headlines

At such a tender age as twenty, 
A young woman must hang her head 
And say…

Sad is the day when the smile is lost, 
Forever,...

Most of my writing is self-exploration
I write for release, not for you,
Not my drift here to say though that you do not count,
I do hope that you like it, I do.

Frequently I am seduced by...

"Husk"




3 decades sucked out the marrow
Swallowed yesterdays
Spits out a Queen from the crumbling Tower

Ten of swords 
High Priestess

In the moment,
When a glistening
Snowflake falls to the earth
Washing the ground
In joy and wonder,
Peaceful silencing the

In notes of faith, stirring
Awake...

Rhyme
is not
the be-all
and the end-all –
the cadence supersedes, mellifluous.
Counting syllables, as superfluous
as the vowels
contained in
the word
queue.

And forced rhymes jar:
