Sharing my poem Second Thoughts - written earlier this year; finally ready to leave home.
A meditation on borders, faith, and the weight of being asked to "declare" yourself.
Some questions demand more than answers.

Tolerance doesn’t mean handing out free chairs to bigotry dressed as “debate.”

When my son announced he was joining the Marines, I wrote this...
It began in grief, but settled into something quieter—
love that doesn’t hold on, but waits.

Trump isn’t a conservative.
Conservatives defend institutions and the Constitution—they conserve. Trump tears down whatever he can’t control, attacks courts and the press, balloons the deficit, and thrives on chaos.
That’s not conservatism. It’s populism with an authoritarian streak.
