thoughts astray
I gaze through the liquid swirl
take another sip

12 Jan 2026 visit to Three Sisters and Elephant Rock, accessible at low tide only. We needed to mind the time to get in and out safely. The weather was overcast, gloomy, and slightly forbidding. A light rain accompanied us. All of this lent a special, starkly unique beauty to the day's adventure.

TIME

REDEMPTION
Urgent hour
beyond deep desire—

love yourself
the way you would love

Antifa Shadorma
Unable
to adjust to life
in a time
when fascists
are seated at our table
eating little girls

the war of 2025
everything
happening right now
is a war
for control.
Men with money who rape kids
v. humanity

Lost Dragon
—shadorma
Lost dragon
once escaped my eyes—
perhaps— twice.
Mythical
salamander said, flaming—
surrender searching.

Missing you
has its own heartbeat,
its own ache.
I love you
to the point of no return,
intentionally.
