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

fight club

“fight club” is a wild poem that I’m still working through.  Here are two stanzas:

flowers hum

their song an electric sander zing

electric saw whine

fauna flicker

ravenous ravens cough up hairballs

their belly aortas throb

 

sunrise,

a Pelican carry case

sweeps towards sunset’s maelstrom
