Today, I got up all bright and peppy excited for a day of submitting my work. I labored for hours over my lists of places to submit and realized I don't know where I fit. I've published some amazing stuff in mediocre ways, and I have work I'm proud of that no one has seen.... Continue Reading →
A Change?
What if I wrote something different? Like if I just wrote what I'm thinking Instead of getting all fancy schmancy With my flourishes from college.
A Blog About Sex
So the other day, A friend asked on a Facebook group, Some questions about sex. I was SO excited. I love sex. I am good at sex. It's cool. I had answers for questions, I had all kinds of things to say, And then I said, Haha maybe I should start a blog about sex... Continue Reading →
What’s Wrong With Me?
I’m feeling so sad and I don’t even know why. Everything I try to do to make it better makes it worse. I feel like I can barely breathe. Like I can breathe into my stomach but there’s this spot in my chest that just locks up. Am I just afraid I’m going to puke... Continue Reading →
Coming
Suddenly there's some anger,Maybe at myself for spending just a little Too much once again. Maybe just what made me fall off the waterfall.What is wrong with you?Some unnamed authority curses my name,What makes you think you are ok?Maybe there'e no hope for you.Cruelty engrained upon your skin,Embossing each movement with tension's kiss,Embodying fear and life itself In...

Writing to Write
The pen hits paper. Metaphorically. No one uses paper and pen anymore. I start speaking innermost thoughts, no feelings...no, I start painting my inner landscape outside of my body. The sadness of one day becomes a vicarious violent jaunt across a blood red sky. The joy of another becomes a happiness medley, a fogue of... Continue Reading →
Maybe Not.
Hello there. Hello. What are you doing here? Same thing as you. What are you looking for? Same as you. I don't believe it. It's been a while. Yes, it has. Last time I saw, we held a grudge... Fire and brimstone complete. Yes. You wrestled me away. I did, at the time. And then... Continue Reading →
The Long Lost Love
Penelope glides across a railing As she watches the tumultuous sea. Cloud masses rise above, pierced as lightning Cuts across the night's looming ebony. As her blackened hair turns, sad eyes appear, And gaze into the distance wistfully, For the long lost love who had once been here, But had sailed these long years restlessly.... Continue Reading →
The Nights Onset
The sea raged, and folded in at my door, Pounding until I couldn't hear a thing, I asked for you to give just one breath more, And you surged inside with my own blessing. I dodged as you engulfed the sight you found- The withered one bracing self like a tree And wavering in the... Continue Reading →
