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.

ode to frontal disclosure

An Ode:  two stanzas of “ode to frontal disclosure”:

I count your colors
on my three hands
your pinks are blush whispers
volcano hot reds

yellow daisies in sunshine
sapphires and sky blues
you are rich mocha
cappuccino smooth
