For Sugar, My Sweet Dog
Sugar, my sweet, you’ve slipped away, Into the light of a softer day. My heart aches deep, it’s hard to bear, This quiet house, this empty air. You were my shadow, soft and warm, A snuggle-seeking, loving form. With wagging tail and gentle eyes, You filled my world with sweet surprise. Escape artist with a wild soul, You chased the wind, you played the...

Sugar-free Red Bull
Algebra sheet limp beneath my elbow, mocking me in equations I’ll never understand. I open Google Classroom like a coffin. The deadlines stack up in a mound of unmarked corpses, in a thousand unmarked graves, in old, unmarked sections of my mind— I'd name them here, but who cares? I’m too tired to mourn them. Sugar-free Red Bull— because I don't sleep, because I care more...

When Your Solutions Are Sugar Coated Possibilities
… [I’m an idiot; I can hold a conversation though I always stutter, I’m average looking yet I hate every molecule I possess. I’ve healed, yet those memories still haunt me. I’ve made impacts and shared my story, yet I’m worthless and will be forgotten. So I ask; Mirror, oh mirror, please give me answers!] “I promise I...

There is magic in ... Sugar and snowflakes, When wonder does begin As December awakes Where this magic comes from Do we really need to know ... From first bite to last crumb O, how we enjoy it, though These simple, pleasurable things Dance and mix and melt ... Upon imaginary wings ... And with our feelings felt Comes to us like a dream These...

MY DEAR ONU
My dear Mama, oh so dear, A mother true, always near. From childhood's dawn till present day, You guided us, showed the way. With "Sugar Boy" by your side, Together you led, with love and pride. To "Oko Eti-ose" and "Oko Okuku" farms, We trekked, with loaded arms. The roads were long, the loads were heavy, I cried, but you helped me be brave. Coming...

Premium Member Sugar and Glass
Occasionally, the sugar cubes were overshadowed by shards of glass. Nighttime was for praying for another sweetened day Decades blew away like gulls on a hurricane cay. Back and forth- sugar and glass-glass and sugar. Washing it all down with an astral grin and wooden prayer. With much practice, you couldn't tell the crystal from the shard....
