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

four hands

The last stanza of “four hands”:


I used to think it harder to fold a fitted

than a flat

by myself

until I had to fold the top with two hands

now, it makes sense to have one set
