For Jone

Warrior Woman
May the stars carry away your fear and sadness
Hold on to what is good
May the promise of spring fill your heart with beauty
Hold on to what you believe
May hope forever wash away your tears and pain
Hold on to what you must do
May your stillness in this silence make you strong
Hold on to life
Hold on [...]

Lockdown

Echoes swirl
Through hallowed
Halls
Bouncing off doors
Inside my
soul
Meaningless words
Wrapped in
Illusion
A singular voice
Bent on spiritual
Intrusion
Bolt the door
Against his
Dark
Shut my eyes
Seek thy
Light

Dear God,

It was an absolute accident that I happened upon such wickedness, disguised in the Turner Classic Movie catalog. Or was it?
An advertisement for acclaimed feature films that grabbed my attention. And so I began to browse the images of the available DVD’s. It was a strange, almost eerie image that I was drawn to; the [...]

My soul sister,

I see you suffering, and I wish there was something I could do for you.
I witness your pain, and my own heart aches.
I see you spiraling, faster each day; downward motion to nowhere land.
I wonder who’ll be waiting when you reach the end.
Unsure what led you to this path; you no longer walk, [...]

Letter to Ophelia No.2

Dearest Ophelia,
Forgive my delayed response; not for lack of trying, but it seemed as if each time I sat to pen my reply, something or someone needed my immediate attention. I’m sure you understand and can relate.
You asked if you are allowed to be this happy…not only are you “allowed,” but you deserve such happiness. [...]

Letter to Ophelia No.1

Dearest Ophelia,
It has been so long since we sat and talked. There once was a time; long, long ago, when there was nothing we didn’t share. Two young girls; hearts brimming with hopes, dreams and silly fears, of that which was unknown; much that we only imagined, some truths that even now are difficult to [...]

I’m listening

The universe is calling; and I am listening. Ensnared in the trap for far too long; searching for a Sage while wallowing in angst. Conceding to the darkness as it consumed and controlled. Though not completely, and not any more.
The universe is whispering; and I am listening. Mother Nature opens her arms, enveloping me in [...]

Eternal Valentine

It was a special year; more so than any they had ever shared. Having followed her to the dark side and come out alive; where he stood along the jagged edge, lifeline tightly secured, should she accidentally fall or simply choose to jump.
Taking the hits as she dished them out. Not once did he waiver, [...]

Sins of man

They were a strange lot; the great-grands in the center with their brood all around; filling three pews on the far left of the church. Two daughters, each producing a set of twins; one had boys, the other girls; of each set, one was perfectly normal, the other not so much. Strange genetics; that each [...]
