One day, I hope to share the entirety of this poem with you (and myself.) I took this photo of the magnificent Dallas Skyline while on the highway in 2015. My feelings below contain a light discussion of addiction. Please take care before viewing. - announcing a new way to share my art in 2024 soon

Coming from a small town, I was always in awe of the city. I could finally find a home within opportunity. However, I consumed all until I, myself was consumed. My adolescent binge drinking evolved into a never-ending battle of substance abuse. Now I'm 28 and 83 days into my rebirth of recovery. I look over memories of my nineteenth year, and I'm still compelled by a sense of hope and belonging within the lights. Feeling that sense, that energy shift forever complicates the reality of that era. Everything's pink. - Tia

i could always find you,

even in the gloomy sky.

[archaic-influence]

Can you feel what I feel?

The love we had so surreal..

Or were we another delusion?

Step by step…

[archaic-influence]

who knows what you’ll find

she pulls them to the morning sun’s solution

[archaic-influence]

sorry young one, you must return to the realm of constant

[archaic-influence]

We have lingered in the chambers of the sea

By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown

Till human voices wake us, and we drown.

-T.S. Eliot

[archaic-influence]

make sure you keep your eyes glued to the the sky

[archaic-influence]

would you cross still rivers with me?

or is calmness dissatisfactory?

[archaic-influence]

bleeding ink

[archaic-influence]

the newspaper said the fire left you filled of lead
