July is my birthday month, and this year I’m asking for donations to my Komen 3-Day walk in November to help end breast cancer. Every gift supports research and care. Please consider donating: bndfr.com/3q7zr. Let’s make a difference together! 💪🩷🎗️

DON'T REGRET WHAT'S HAPPENED BEFORE DON'T REGRET BE THANKFUL FOR IT MORE DON'T REGRET YESTERDAYS CRAZY DREAMS JUST KEEP YOUR MIND SET NO MATTER HOW HARD IT SEEMS Poem written and copyrighted by cbbhattacharya/ Christina Bruns

I wrote this little poem back in 1994. 😍

be still with me now let the weight rest for a breath in the breaking comes the quiet shape of new things we name what shakes us even when our soul feels lost this is not normal but we must not look away we stay at our edge where silence is our teacher lessons from the night let the questions float awhile lightning finds the open sky original poem by kali hera

Be still with me now

One More Thing If Columbo asked for just one more thing, what would you say? Standing in your doorway, rumbled beige raincoat, ruffled hair, cigar, compassionate squint. Would his wife be familiar with your pain? Would your answer lead to conviction or absolution? - Simon Christiansen

We elected a president,
not a king.
You don’t have to kiss the ring.
Lost in fear of what fascism will bring.
Don’t forget to let freedom ring.

Don’t do the fascist dance.
Don’t obey in advance.

Been there, done that! Feels somewhat of a metaphor for the world politics right now! :)

I feel like I HAVE to keep writing. After my muses 30 year hiatus, I better use this chic as much as I can before she goes POOF again. haha

Hello everyone! RESIST! 💙💙💙💙

Last night's Reading Your Resistance / Writing Your Resistance panel was as inspiring as it was informative. Here are a few photos of the event, moderated by our Artistic Director @rebeccamakkai.bsky.social, and with panelists Parneshia Jones, Adrian Matejka, Megan Stielstra, and Michael Zapata.

Amen!

Poets and authors that have moved away from KDP, which self publishing platform do you now use and why?

Within us, roots run deep and strong,
In unity we will carry on.
Lessons learned in quiet grace,
Determined souls in sacred space.
Forged in hardship we stay kind,
In humility our hearts aligned.
Resilience blooms with every fall,
Empowered by compassion, we rise for all.

Beautiful poem

Hold the light
In freezing hands
Chapped with wind and pain.

Hold the light
In wind and rain
When you are soaked and cold.

Hold the light
As if it is your last heartbeat

Tender, broken, bereft
It is the one thing
We can do

Hold the light
Resist
