they stacked me with old books & left me alone
so I sat on the front porch of someone else’s home
& I read to the flowers, although they’d called them weeds
they criticized my stories all the same

It Comes in Waves 🌊🌻
Most things comes in waves
The seasons and seas
the cool spring breeze
Take a moment to relax
Maybe enjoy a face mask
Don’t think about any upcoming tasks
Take a deep breath, nice and slow
As you release letting the air go...
Close your eyes and imagine the skies
The sounds of nature in you space
instead of the city’s fast pace
take a moment to envision yourself swaying slowly with the breeze
by a field , the forest , or in the seas--take in the moment--you must seize
these short moments of life
that make you feel most at ease
poem: inspired by paul éluard’s ‘liberty’
the way the ocean shimmered in the sunset my rusty beach cruiser tires covered in sand dipping salty fries into thick milkshakes there’s so much to tell you sharing a laugh with my cousin in the moonlight throwing the ball into the waves until the dog is tired feeling like everything is coming together there’s so much to tell you hiking through ancient green dinosaur lands cleansing myself in cold waterfalls red dirt staining the soles of my shoes there’s so much to tell you learning to be alone in an island paradise cold drinks before swimming in the sunset making new friends and scraping my knee there’s so much to tell you glitzy gamblers serving as muses winning at blackjack for a change diving deep into the warm nighttime pool there’s so much to tell you treading the primitive trails at arches hikers yearning for a bit of shade my sneakers leaving nothing but a trace there’s so much to tell you paddling down the silty colorado river caps full of brown water cooling me down learning more and more about the family I chose there’s so much to tell you then the evening comes in fast and loose and I hear you in every song on the radio there’s no doubt you’ll always be with me there’s so much to tell you
one day in July
Summer energy
Cicada screaming over the
haunting song of the ice cream truck
sweating in the East Coast humidity
Summer taste
Poesie inspired by the Shakespeare sonnet 18

Sound and body
Grey plastic stretching thin
Over me
Underneath
Begin
Watching shadows
Cover your mouth
I couldnt be what I wanted to be
So i sat in the sand
Waist high
The starlights
Flicker
Draw me in
Carry me
Anywhere
As long as you hold on
Tight
You never left
Eventho i cannot see you
Waiting for what is already here
I sink
I swallow
Tap my mouth
7.21.14
Those who really commit
dynamite it
casually with sneakers
not some canvas job
one shoe left in the intersection
thoughts flopping around
as some sea creature smiles
because underwater
define happiness and you'll drown
but back in the air
something about fancy
not quite casual
