The world is (unhinged) right now. I am taking deep breaths, trying to ground myself in a reality worthy of staying in. I am mindful of what is crossing the threshold of my boundaries. Listening within the quiet, I recognize – I’ve been hiding. As I re-emerge and reenter my own body, I settle onContinue reading “Poetry Series – Abstinence”

Poetry Series – Performative
Do you want to know the shameful truth? Of course you do, we love knowing we’re not alone in our monstrous beliefs and habits! The truth is, I feel most alive on stage. I love the attention and the physical proof that I am good at something. I walk away, shaking. Every cell in myContinue reading “Poetry Series – Performative”

Poetry Series – Collapse
I’m not sure this is what I pictured when they said “London Bridge is falling down”. Something told me bridges didn’t truly collapse. That they are strong enough, sturdy enough, always well maintained points of connection. I didn’t think we’d drop out of touch, just like that – falling arms. Maybe I didn’t think aheadContinue reading “Poetry Series – Collapse”

To see my daily writings pulled from the inspiration of lifeContinue reading “Poetry Series – Collection of Consistency”

What’s in a name? I wonder as I attempt to accurately title this poem. Think of the meanings behind them, question their truths. Do you take on the traits of a name, or does it mold to you?

Poetry Series – Diamond Miner
I am profoundly in love with life again and I suppose I have no one to blame but myself. I’m not sure I ever could have said that before – personal limitations, not circumstance. Drawn in, I feel connected. Rooted, I reach to otherS, continually scanning and comminicating need. Diamond Miner They call us diamondContinue reading “Poetry Series – Diamond Miner”
Poetry Pairings – Skin…
Call this a turning point. I don’t know what awaits but I sense the profound change ahead, around every bend. I’m ready to be me. (Again.) And I don’t care if it makes it harder for you to be “you”, or for them to be “them”. If you’re unwaving in your* truth.. you won’t careContinue reading “Poetry Pairings – Skin…”
