Strangely normal

2022 November 4th2022 May 15th

in dreams
time is broken
we ride the shards
or they pierce
our sight —
we see with
different eyes
and know with
a deeper mind

I’m positive!

2022 February 17th2018 July 4th

my veins are lined
with a velvet hope

my soul is electric
and lights with dreams

my mind is infinite
and buzzes with wonder

my heart is beyond alive
and gushes boundless love

my body is fragile
yet heals as if magic

my will is strong
and dances with courage

Summer-nap

I drifted into a summer-nap
under the hot shade of July
serenaded by a cicadae lullaby
to drowsy-warm dreams
of distant thunder…
