Never fails to get my adrenaline flowing.
I polish it every time after its done.
I can't help it.
It just looks so pretty when its been polished
It is so small, yet...

Endless curse, my love for you
A dirty life, my ritual of solitude
Quiet days and empty nights
Foggy mornings and everything that comes with lack of sleep

And silence abound
My lover, the ground

Shaking off the morning shakes
Pop a...

I try to be the best wife and mom
Yet  my patience is running thin
There are bills to pay and screaming mouths to feed….
Oh, Where do I begin?
Just too many duties
In the course of a...

twas the night before 12/25, and all through the country
not a believer was praying, not even mitt romney.
s&m gear amassed in closets where stored,
awaiting the moment “santa” showed, to commence the beatings
once more.

the children were...

Child support is not all about getting paid; it’s about supporting one another.
It’s the results of what comes out of laying up together, and what we made.

We hada baby, and that was alright in my...

Just because I said, I do
Does not mean I will
Pick up all my messes 
Wipe up every spill

You know that I'm a slob
But just what can I do
I hope you know I do my best
Trying...

On your forehead is a red Tip,
Worn in Boishakhi Shari,
The bracelets are also arrayed nicely,
You are looking so beautiful.
I did not wear Panjabi ever,
Though today I am putting on it only for you,
In the crowed...

House of spiders

My empty house, my soul is full of spiders,
No way to go for covering my empty day,
No will to overfill the ash of my reminders,
To see the thread of grass or bright my...

Lift up your hands


Lift up your hands
Cry out to me
I will give you everlasting joy!
Wipe up those tears that readily fall!
Take lessons from the birds
Who joyfully call,
Singing their hearts out
Before the raging storm
Take lessons from...

If only you knew how upset I get,
going into bathrooms with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to wipe up water off the counter,
with just air machines.
I have not figured out how to...

Days were they stood proud
speaking of days gone by
talking in laugages few
understood
which Meadows aren't Casears
Since all beneath the sun is God's
and every tounge that worships
does so from the blessings of
Casears

wind is coming in
sun is just showing
horses are watered
fire is glowing

movement is starting
the camp is awake
cookie is working
there's breakfast to make

no fancy croissants
or drinks laced with toffee
this is good solid food
and strong cowboy coffee

The boss is coming to school today.
Hooray hooray hooray hooray
I used to like him a bunch, I really did.
But this year he’s fallen into quite a skid.

Being a school counselor has challenges enough.
But being assigned...

Being torn apart, inside out,
Society ripping your flesh into pieces.
Red coating the walls in splashes of vibrant life.
You’re not good enough, You must change to become who you are
meant to be.
Nobody can be different,
but you...

avec
breviloquent
moments 
revealing the
underpinnings of
a latent
sociopath 
(just take a bit longer
to look right in their
eyes),
muttering in the most 
amicable way that can 
be mustered,
the polite offer up
their assessment of
you---
“you are looking good!”
“have you lost weight?”
“so happy...

back again the torrid twister rips
through life with its emotional
whirlwind of idiosyncratic hang-ups
that show their face after a few months &
the inability to compromise on life
choices once dedicated to oneself now

The way you would yell and scream,
“Idiotic”,

I mean no more than a throw away napkin,
You used me to wipe up all of your insecurities,

to many men
too many men
don't look a 
woman in
her eyes
instead
speak
to

what they think

paying attention
intentionally
looking for
someone
who will
talk 
face
to face

but the fixation
relationship
of the pair
takes him
to the
point
of
pointlessly

spilling
his drink
on her
blouse
then in
intended
apology he
asks if he...

This night is pointless to me
You feel like you’re free
While you’re out having fun
I’m at home without my Hun
You go out and get trashed
Next thing you know… you have crashed
I rush to the scene
