One for the full moon.

I have wanted to write a poem about domestic violence for a while now after researching it for an essay. I started writing this tonight because of the full moon and it ended up becoming one.

Good Bones

by Maggie Smith

Life is short, though I keep this from my children. Life is short, and I’ve shortened mine in a thousand delicious, ill-advised ways, a thousand deliciously ill-advised ways I’ll keep from my children. The world is at least fifty percent terrible, and that’s a conservative estimate, though I keep this from my children. For every bird there is a stone thrown at a bird. For every loved child, a child broken, bagged, sunk in a lake. Life is short and the world is at least half terrible, and for every kind stranger, there is one who would break you, though I keep this from my children. I am trying to sell them the world. Any decent realtor, walking you through a real shithole, chirps on about good bones: This place could be beautiful, right? You could make this place beautiful.

Internal Storm

There is a storm in my heart;  turning the quiet seas of my soul into tempestuous and treacherous oceans. And yet, the only water that I feel is the one that falls from my eyes. 

- Ely C. Winters.

I am a dark bowl, waiting to be filled. If I open my mouth now, I could drown in the rain.

I hurry home as though someone is there waiting for me. The night collapses into your skin. I am the rain.

— Kazim Ali, from “Rain,” Pluck Me and Hum
