Avid RPG gamer 👹
Netflix binger of anything sci-fi fantasy 🐲
Incurable smiler 🤗
purple pockets of powdery dust
growing everywhere.
If you #touched or breathed it in
it took over your body
by way of your nervous system.
There was a pool of silvery light.
If you breathed it in
to coat your nervous system,
you became immune.

—after the valley thawed, before she learned her name
Winter taught endurance.
February teaches hunger.
Roses sharpen. Wolves wait.
What breathed beneath ice finally rises.

The innocence is broken
I understand that
hurt was intended
Ultimately,
the heart can stretch
to hold all
though it #aches
and bleeds
and cries
for its loss
I could never have reached
this wisdom of age
without your betrayal
but I miss that
simple trust of love
Roberta ❤️🔥

Bright, standing
in your field of glory alone
Soften your light
don't shine it in their eyes
Let it seep into painful cracks
warm the dark cold
Let it fall in tears
wash hidden #wounds
Let it glow in your heart
as colored embers
pulsing with a promise
of new beginnings
Roberta ❤️🔥

Like the echo of a dream I once had
Come home come home
Leave the distractions
that no longer pleasure you
Come feel the wind fresh on your face
Come smell the last flower of the season
Come taste the crisp sweetness of apple
Come home to your life
Roberta ❤️🔥

Hesitating, I hold
this familiar sad fear
between my palms.
As it nears my heart-light,
I see clearly
it is merely
faded echoes
of me not loving me.
My heart says,
"Enough of this silliness,
come inside,
we will create joy together."
Roberta ❤️🔥

She reaches into her #quiver
for the Arrow of Truth,
nocking it firmly onto the bowstring
and drawing it to the limit of her capacity.
She fires high into the sky,
knowing beyond doubt
it will fall
where it can do the most good.
Her job is to release
and allow the journey.

— on what survives after facts
A monochrome still life of persuasion—
where documents age, candles shrink,
and repetition keeps working after proof departs.

my breath catches in my chest.
I #bend over,
rolling pant-legs higher,
still moving.
The icy waves wash over me.
As my feet sink into the sand,
I raise my face toward the uncaring sky.
I scream with the wind
and the shrieking seagulls
until my throat is raw.

We can be attached
in a positive polarity (desiring)
or attached
in a negative polarity (resisting)
Both polarities inhibit
the natural flow of life
and constrict possibilities
Open the closed mind
Open the clenched fists
Open the grasping heart
Let go, let it flow
Roberta ❤️🔥

Words of encouragement
Words of appreciation
