"THE PAUSE BEFORE THE CHOICES"

"THE PAUSE BEFORE THE CHOICES"

Take a step back and analyse.

Listen to some sounding advice.

Do you like what you see?

Are you longing to be free?

Think three steps ahead.

"AN EMPTY ROOM"

"AN EMPTY ROOM"

No more magic?

Why vacant as it is?

Who took all of it?

Nothing to pick.

Dementors have resided,

"THE SLEEPING SATELLITE"

"THE SLEEPING SATELLITE"

If time were relative,

then I’d like a pause

for a sense of relief

without any cause.

Let me roam around,

Sitting In The Car After Cancer Surgery

Sitting In The Car After Cancer Surgery

Head Hurts.

Jaw Hurts.

My Sinuses Hurt.

My Brain Feels Tuned.

My Eyes Feel Tired.

My Emotions Are All Used Up.

"SLANDER"

"SLANDER"

Nobody wins.

Everybody loses.

Stories told,

bought and sold.

Facts versus fiction.

#FOT

#FOT

In the periphery of darkness

On your way to the light

You're gonna make a choice

After struggling inside

You must refuse

You must resist

Gather Round Me Nest

Gather Round Me Nest

Oh gather these things round me.

Round my room and into boxes marked "new".

The money spent is silly in exuberance and steward-less sinfulness.

Two hundred dollar leather wool boots and Costco matters.

Pregnant and driven with unknown, excited anticipation.

Out with the old and chipped and into the broken boxes goes my MAINE home.

The Wind that Shakes the Leaves

The Wind that Shakes the Leaves

I sit behind the pond

This cool night wind is curious

It stands to my resort

Where they do always jury us

I should feel what is real

Hot-Dogs & Beer

Hot-Dogs & Beer

ICE Cold Beer with a hot-dog smothered in mustard, ketchup, onions and kraut.

National Hebrew Kosher steamed from Costco.

Hot day with chips on the side.

Sliced cold watermelon.

Too much of a good thing gets old.

"YOUR TROPHIES?"

"YOUR TROPHIES?"

What is it with people like you?

You treat everything a competition,

all in the name of public acknowledgment.

You flaunt your fortunes,

clearly fishing for compliments.

STILL...VIEW

STILL...VIEW

The 6am view from the bedroom, leads my eyes to quiet graves by sunrise.

Frantic thoughts and heart and panic attacks.

Rest my soul, my spirit, my mind, my heart, my life.

Let go of results, success, achievement, fame.

Be still with the spreading of WAX, punching in data, the baking of cookies.

Take note of my daughter's morning kiss, my husband's sacrifice, the doctor's empathy, the sunshine and my father's perfume gift.

Bag Of Chips

Bag Of Chips

Today, I bought a bag of chips.

Not veggie or healthy but the real thing.

March is hanging on.

I'm loving the fight for sanity till spring. So good all winter with exercise and Vitamin D, thinking positive thoughts and trying to embrace the suck.

My strength is breaking; fortitude melting.

No green in sight.
