Four strong winds Reveal brutal minds A falling out A troubling slice of time ~ Part I A lovely human ~ a man achingly slow yet disappearing gentleness voiced adoration of children sees self as happiest when they are grown allowed and welcome to leave for personal growth understated yet larger than […]

Walk On

Two humans coasting crashing planing revealing roasting creating fifty-five years of friendship five months of tactile heralding five nights six days of absolute glory my heart falls into an abyss of nowhere land overflowing with before unseen and undetected anger romantic involvement Alas, it is over… over.

Lull

My beating soul wind and breath still beat their wings waves are rocking on Papa’s lake my father’s images ghost-walk throughout nuclear war shades promise and a constant threat Kind light soft shadows bamboo knocking across the veranda sounds of Viet Nam and my Du I miss you Into fits of anguished heart stutters waiting […]

It Is I, Lord

I am chosen by my Higher Power to be a human who does not process alcohol well, sometimes called an alcoholic; or, I am a human who has an Alcohol Use Disorder; or, I am a human who tests positive for the genetic mutation called MTHFR ~ never mind that my bloodline is First Nation mixed with […]

Marvelous Darkness

Let go let go let go. Allow Forgive. let go, learn. Can we not see the true patchwork of life? May we be poised lovers without melodrama? May we comfort the devil since she/he may simply be fearful of being alone? No one can be free or fulfilled unless we can all be. We will navigate […]

Into fits of […]

Along the Way

Little Girl Lost

My soul of silver slivered etchings so fine they cuts one’s breath into gasps choking for oxygen Memories flood with your touch your sighs your strumming heartbeat and an empty question.

I Concur

We humans are deeply flawed each and every one We are found wandering aimlessly, seeking connections, any connection We reach for comfort and solace through addictions ~ some more publicly obvious than others Yet, within the context of who we are We climb sprint fly and claw to do the best we can I crawl […]
