Biting Back
“An art in itself, if we wish to survive.”
I Miss It
“The neutrality of living anonymously – for now all of us are getting more categorized.”
A Main Issue
“I do not want to go back into hell to overturn a ruling that belongs in my favor – but I have to.”
Barriers To Success
“It infuriates me that all I can do right now is attend to very few things – and then I must decompress, without making further progress.
Yet, I can’t tell if it’s my inner drive to achieve – or the need to keep pressing hard onward in order to survive that is yelling.”

Swallowed Whole
There is much to be said for
No longer gripping the walls
Just letting go of resistance
In hopes to pass beyond this
Painful torment pushing us
To succumb to its pressure
Yet I don’t want to give up
As I fall into the darkness
And still hope for finding a
Better than usual outcome
Dear Alex,
“I don’t want to live entrapped by poverty and limitations, anymore.
I want to be a ‘Rock Star’ – at least metaphorically, if not in reality.”
Dear Friend,
Would you place me on
A bed covered in petals
Tenderly kissing seeking
The still hidden wounds?
Sounds romantic doesn’t it?
What a dream to hold onto
But I’d prefer flowers
Alive with their thorns
It’s just you in my arms
And our love unadorned
That would raise me as
Queen to the heavens

Half-Life
We’re divided into pieces
Driven or not by purpose
Half of my life ought to be
For myself and my partner
Whereas much of the rest
To family, friends, society
And portions yet to come in
Exploring good experiences
(The Sun – Ben Bohmer)
Dear Friend,
“It matters, and it will always matter to me.”
Mind On A Roll

Respect
Disagreements from
Different perspectives
How do we acknowledge in ways that are
Mutually empowering rather than divisive?
Truth Or Dare
“I do not like playing games that diminish love’s tenants.”
OverHeated
“Why on this day of 101F straight-singeing sunbeams did I decide to transplant in my garden?
Because my body finally said ‘NOW,’ and I’d been waiting several months to have enough pull together to be able to.”
Affection
Love’s currency

Cackling Glee

Blow Back

Scavenging

Empty Shells

Desolation

Biting Back
“Though fangs edge long and hunger breeds need, there is no one worthy to feast upon.”
Monsters & Madness
“Why must men make everything so complcated and full of insanity?
How can they not realize that we need good leadership and care to not go crazy in this broken society women still have no say in?”
My Teeth
“You wanted to see them?”
Gentility’s Mask
If I allow myself to sink
The buoy goes missing
Yet, if I always float
Feelings submerge
Above surface is
Highly functional
But beneath lurks
Leviathanic abyss
Childhood Friend
“She had always thought that I’d been successful.
But I just stepped up to the plate – and dove all in to win.”
Without Options
“I was never given any.”
So Let’s Play
I wanna roll the numbers
I wanna feel my stars align again
Won’t you pay for your arrogance?
Won’t you show me your weakness?
Tangled with what I never said
I wanna be forgiven
