A baby’s cry in
the streetcar clicking along-
sound of gurgling vowels

From my poetry chapbook, Selected Snippets, 2010

Legend of the For-get-me-not

The Danube on a sun-kissed day
A knight in armor clad
Beside his steeds of gait and speed
Rode the Maid Mirad

At 6 months pregnant, I had a stroke. Baby was unharmed, C-section delivered him 10 weeks later, yet I mourned the motherhood I dreamt of. Not for me strolls with the pram, just relearning to walk. On the upside I lost my sense of smell so, no matter how #pungent the nappy, I was content. #vsd365

#vsd365
Lose yourself in D silliness of life,what goes🔼goes🔽,
what goes🔽goes🔼. D #Rigamarole won't last long,u may not even feel pain if D universe decides it has had enough of human stupidity&wipes D slate clean.There
may not even be a
tomorrow! If D Fool wants 2undermine us,
laugh at him instead

I took a redeye flight my #suitcase in hand.
Drank two White Russians before the land.
Fleeing a circle of people who were never friends.
I knew if I didn’t start over my life would surely end.
