After’em Sirens I carry a pocketful of rusted daylight, thin as apology. Grip Ma’s cathedral rosary that refuses empire rooms. There are sugar-boned screams lodged behind my teeth; aside a #sunbird gravel ax head, I keep mistaken for strength before dawnbreak. I sing of an-uprising. #Soldseed

echoes go back & forth inside a heart yearning to hear familiar songs of what was but never will be again - echoes. #micropoem #micropoetry #poetry #poetrycommunity #blueskypoetry #writing #writingcommunity #author #poem #poet #writer

why must I, alone, carry the weight of what's been lost? it is beyond measure, and I wonder is there no justice? I cannot stitch the story of what was and what is you can see the seam it used to be. seamless and I keep pacing in my mind as if walking could somehow manifest sense #SenseWrds 282

every move leaves something undefended. choose the life you want, and you give up the safety of the one you had.

the cacophony of voices can either be music or damnation - it is our choice whether we embrace melody or death. #micropoetry #micropoem #poetry #poetrycommunity #blueskypoetry #writing #writingcommunity #author #poem #poet #writer

loneliness is not always being alone. sometimes it's being in a room full of people who only know the agreeable version of you.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 325-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

it is morning and I know you have to go and the bed is about to get cold but I think it would be best for one more kiss at the night's bequest and if it should linger a little longer and you find your will weaker and desire. stronger then stay our bodies clearly have something more to say #vss365

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress. Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. This should be a national outrage.
