"Barren is my concern, and battered is my pleasure for want of pride of place. My curiosity is singular and personal in nature. A self-reliance born out of a necessity. I search the chambers of my heart so I escape my own ruin. Common discourse is so much scenery to analyze at my leisure"

Fallen leaves on the green grass.

"Autumn winds blow, and I absorb their touch under a returning sun. Lavish in my Midwest love for all of the seasons. The scent of fallen leaves and the irony of loving the gifts of decay. Stolen kisses in the pumpkin patch with heated love in the dried corn fields. Seeds are eternal."

angry and bitter
a #vengefulness in her heart
punish those who wronged her

"There is a way of viewing days through a tenacious lens. Cultivated clarity with grace to judge myself first. Youthful smile, a gaze that has seen kingdoms fade to memory. The surface level sees connection, I strive for alchemy. A chemistry of soul magnetism is the meal with the dessert"

#emeotry

Thrift stores dimly lit
Safe houses of abandonment
Items thrown out like trash
Often by the upper class
Heavens holding breath
While life is trapped in a moment
Little angels go and visit
All the sadness held within
Lucky if the lucky be
Adopted into a new family
