My Writer’s Brain, Awake In The Dark

I want to sleep 

I want to write 

I want these two 

To align in 

Daylight 

Cling to Hope

Fear is powerful 

Yet only hope can transform 

Cling strongly to that 

It’s hard, at times, to fnd the light in the dark. Seek it out, nurture it. It is there, and will grow stronger.

May 24, 2918

What will that day like?

Beyond my imagining

So far forward 

Where my name 

Will have faded 

Into the realm of dreams 

This notion brought about 

By my misplaced fingers 

Respect and Dignity: A Haiku

We are unable

To summon basic respect

For views not our own



As long as we, as a culture, or as a species, struggle to summon basic respect and dignity for each other, we will fail. 

Time for a Friday Haiku

A Friday haiku
What is the root of its joy?
Delightful freedom

Happy Friday, everyone!

Feed your soul joy 

Just pursue your dreams
Seek out joy to feed your soul
Fight hard for your heart

May your week be filled with blessings. 

Tonight’s Haiku: The Value We Bring 

Upon work’s altar
Our lives are a sacrifice
A worthy exchange?

I’ve been thinking about work and our relationship to it.
