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

I watch me die



 The second stanza from “I watch me die”:

 

a chilly fog

I kneel

my hands, forehead touch ground

my body’s a faded pair of blue jeans

knees, a thread-bare faith
