I rather not spend time
in the hatred junkyard—
the smell makes my
soul wither
cleverer to hang out
in that half-way arena
where my feelings
can simmer
& I can take a look
in the mirror to figure out
who the hatred's about,
them or me?
That's my key to victory
when dark feelings
overwhelm me.

I was over it when
I saw you
standing
in the moonlight
you kissed your palms
opened them
to the stars
every wish
I ever knew
flew up
with them
body and soul
our hearts
broken into
a millard pieces
of stardust
fell as rain
flowers felt
how every day
when in Love is #vss365 #emoetry

Gathering What Remains
I have been practicing
the art of gathering—
not people,
not apologies,
not proof.
But what remains.
The breath I dropped
in arguments that went nowhere.
The shards of laughter
that slipped between hospital corridors.
The small, feral joys

Gratitude Repost Coming:
I owe some people hi-fives. ⤵️
Check my Wall 🤍
During my eyesight crisis and surgery, when vision went sideways and turned to haze, my #bsky folx didn’t just send well-wishes—you became my sight. Your art, your energy, relentless posts—reposts; creativity kept me tethered.

![[ a note of thanks ]
This suite of posts: Your artwork, your lives, your brilliance—gathered here like proof that community isn’t just a word, it’s hands extended in the dark. Your posts in my wall as gratitude.
You held me through the blur. When my eyes failed, yours became mine—your art, your words, your light kept the world visible. You didn’t just watch from a distance. You reached through screens and satellites, sent energy I could feel even when I couldn’t see.
Surgery came. Vision returns slowly but steadily . But what you gave me doesn’t fade.Thank you for being my eyes when I had little. With everything—my support.

Into the basket of my heart,
I gather all the things
that bring you closer to me
so that when we're apart,
I may take them back out,
arranging them closely
as though
your very arms
did surround me.

The story arc
of love can be
a predictable thing—
a passionate
kiss begins
the elaborate rise
of two lovers
until time and
experience leave
a bitter taste
once over it,
time to find
a successor
but let's
you & I write
a different story,
one that's truly
