why write?

I have to write what I hear in my head, what I dream in my sleep, what my bones ache to express.

My poems tell stories of strength, love, regret, disobedience, loss, hope, redemption, and whatever whispers.

—Cindy B. Stevens

where is my fire?

“where is my fire” is a four stanza poem; here are the first lines of each:

my darkness is my gift of persuasion

my smile, a camouflage of intent

I’m not content

I want to return
