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

Today, I’ll share two stanzas from “sparks”:

air floats jazz
Sheila wants it to seduce her
make her forget why she shouldn’t have
another
glass of wine

she wants Randall back
she misses his caresses
his sweet
wild
love
