The ocean teems with many lives
Plants and creatures of all kinds
All joined by the web of life
Which all living things binds

#Stripe.
Stripes in the cane: a candy of your thoughts.
Red for the dread and white for the light,
which holds all the colors hidden out of sight.

The curve of your lips
Sunlight pouring through the leaves
Our autumn kiss

River of Sleep ~ Drifting endlessly, on waves of dreams on rivers and streams steered by currents unperceived, so relieved, yet so deceived Content in sounds of winds that weep. That weep; Content in sounds of sleep In sleep you find you can believe, So relieved yet so deceived Your mind plays host to your own being So #alien and so unseen Unseen because you can't conceive It's just a dream, You've been deceived.

delve into
a three-way mirror
fight the urge
keep smiling
- she is but a wayfarer
a mimic

Awkward daisy smile -
Navigating unease
A full-time job
I build a shelter inside
And watch for breaks in the rain

Shades
A favorite of children, stop signs, bulls. #Red to catch the eye, daring you to feel its veinal pump. Vermillion, crimson, scarlet, the orangey tint of hemoglobin hitting air as the knife swings, as the guillotine falls, as the nose meets fist, as the rock leaves the hand. #whisptr
#Whisptr
Cement sidewalks parched
Rising heat
Lightning streaks
Booming thunder
We look anticipating
The first drop
Foretelling a storm.
Wind shifts and cools
The summer antidote
To heat — rain
Followed by rising petrichor
#Writing
#prompts
do not badger me
with your judgment of others
who do not measure up
to your standards
of what is appropriate
why raise an alarm
on those
who do no harm?
I prefer to let
people be
practice empathy
when you're like this
I cannot help but ask
are you putting on
or taking off
a mask?
