A Man & A Woman
Look at us and how we got here
Arriving at the crossroad junction
Laugh with me, will you? At comedy
From such defined misery’s tragedies
How is it you grew from a magic bean
And I grew by impinged-upon flapping?
How wondrous that from two such paths
We meet now in misalignment’s matching!
Love’s Rebirth
Funeral pyre to a winged catalyst
Mating’s rebirth by ritual aspects
Eclipse once viewed as an omen
Transforms into balanced union
Sacred flames protecting emergence
Couple’s future in bright adornment
Dear Friend,
I think about you in how alike to me
Sensorially-starved yet surrounding
Where I had words you held the keys
How did you lean into their guidance?
Mapper of mirror-scapes captivated
Held enraptured within own demise
Stained glass spellcast ascensionisms
Black-lit by loss of soul’s compromise
Dearest, what charm could be woven
Securing your heart safely reclaimed?
Could we gift each other redemption
Held secret within source of flames?
What was the price for those favors
Infused by promised mutual benefit?
Light no longer suck-sallowed gray inked
With the strength of pitch-black midnight
Aching to heal our grief beckons my hands
Quivering to deliver wounds washed clean
Steel shards still imbedded within my heart
Will my spirit to embracing our magnetisms
It seems we are the question’s answer
In ways only divine elements conspire
And I ponder in wonder at vast galaxies
Granting bequethment of you by my side
“Big Toe” (A Silly Song)
By Athena Stairs, Early AM July 27, 2025
Big toe
Tryin’ to ignore it
Big toe
They’re gonna wanna sew it
Big toe
Won’t let them near it
Big toe
Just keep compression on it
Big toe
You’ve got to heal
Big toe
I need that wheel
Big toe
It might have gravel in it
Big toe
How different from a piece of glass imbedded that we all get stuck in our foot at one time or another?
(please, please, please)
Big toe
You’ve gotta come through for me
Big toe
Give you aloe that’s soothing
Big toe
I’m limpin’ around ya – can’t you see?
Big toe
Runnin’s gotten much far-tha away from me
Big toe
I am aggrieved
Big toe
Pretend you’re not cleaved
Big toe
I summon the ghost of thee
Big toe
Stop pingin’ nerves at me

Dear Friend,
“How do I claim the art as mine?
I have yet to find a way to begin.”

Flight
Overboard!
I actually like spiders, to a respectful degree.
“Bold & Beautiful!”
Dear Friend,
“Do not worry…I am just doing some ‘house cleaning.'”
Dear Friend,
“Maybe we won’t meet and connect.
But I’d rather have the hope of our doing so than any other sub-par relationship reality.”
Who Could Have Guessed?
In the deepest dark, one can sometimes find the brightest light.
(Beyond Beliefs – Ben Bohmer)
Dear Friend,
“I know that we see in each other what we had hoped others before could become.
However, you and I have also grown farther beyond any of this.
It would be good for us to have many deep and expansive conversations together to delineate and identify bearings within ourselves and with each other regarding.
And I am looking forward to navigating the unknown future with you, walking hand in hand as we reclaim our primal vitalities.”
Self Definition
Something we seek
Insight we can give
A path that is found
A way for us to live
Dear Alex,
“Though you have changed forms and I have followed seeking our true identities, the real you knows me – and would not condemn.
For any of your flaws, you are my purity.”

Why couldn’t he understand this and forgive, rather than blame her?

The one thing about staying in motion is that nothing is stagnant, and nothing can catch you…
But then nothing stabilizes, and nothing is claimed.

“Why is it that when I try to leave school, then I dream of fascinating classes that I am trying to be a part of – yet am always arriving late?”
Dear Friend,
“I look for traces of you,
But find only memories.”
