Sometimes it’s subtle but every day, here we were, just finding beauty in what could be someone else’s mess. What do you see? Call me crazy but I guess that’s the perspective of it all.

Poetry Series – Intention
My years of becoming have been more an unburying of the time-capsule that is me. Digging up all of my best parts, dreams, and beliefs. Unboxing them and marveling at the discovery.

The second time I admitted myself into the hospital, part of what drove me there was not understanding the strange things I was starting to experience.

I still don’t always understand what I’m seeing, hearing, feeling – but it’s gotten a bit easier to allow myselfContinue reading “Eyes Black, Heart Attack”
