My Everything©
I never thought I’d see the day that I would truly know love. With the click on my keyboard, pulled into a personal chat. Questions asked, questions answered. Laughs, giggles, smiles. More in common than there are differences. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. But what I’ve gained is a knot in my stomach that just won’t […]

Here I Stand©
Here, I stand on the ground created by him for all humankind. Here, I breathe the air that feeds all things natural. Here and now, I dance in the rain to the music of my descendants, providing the earth so it will return the favor, turning our crops into food to fill our bellies. Take […]

A Place At The Table©
Like little ants scrapping for leftovers from a picnic, we await our orders. We are crawling over each other between the four walls with windows. The only difference is that we must be patient.

Everything and Nothing at All
Once, there was a moment when I caught a glimpse of a woman who had everything. She stood tall. Seemingly proud. Though she had no airs, she was poised and elegant. No slouching, and every limb just oozed grace. She was notably educated, for every word she spoke was sophisticated. There were no errors or […]

The Unapologetic Man©
He is always right, although he’s wrong.Name slinger and perpetually angry at the world.He shows no onus or regret for his degradation of others.Stands proud and brags of small accomplishments.He stands silent and alone, wondering why.
