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

no pill

Here’s another that hasn’t completely defined itself.  I might title it, “no pill”:


there is no pill for morning after hair

cut

scissored

razored

washed

styled

sprayed

there is no morning after pill for bad hair

it’s not going to be alright
