There is a silence in me
it grows
and takes me away
from everything
a statue set in stone,
I’m left all on my own
frozen, silent, still,
and still I yearn for you
to know
everything
in me
but until
my words come back
please stay here
with me

I grip, with teeth gnashing,
the wheel, knowing that
Jesus had plenty of time
to take it from me.
Instead, of controlling it,
I let it spin like a compass,
a wandering needle
Searching
Yearning
Deserving
of something so much more

Sometimes I wander the streets at night
waiting for answers from the moon.
I keep my hands close
to my pocket linings,
clutching tight to my worry stone.
My insights are etched
in the craters of the moon,
in the constellations
and midnight glow.

As I step in through the door
The stillness finds the rattling
of my bones,
My shallow breathing
meets the pungent smell of books.
The headaches of the world
are held like babes
and also studied like a museum.

Is anyone else moving towards what some are calling an ‘analog life style?’
If so, what have you done so far? What would you recommend.
So far, I’m trying my best to de-Google, de-AI, de-Meta and feeling good about progress.

I will not speak ill of the dead
but I will invoke their power
upon thee, to stand at my side:
for justice, for comfort, for peace.
They give unto me gifts
of holly, yarrow, and larkspur;
and every year
when the hellebore bloom,
I will remember them.

Quiet time, quality time.
Time to sit and think.
Perhaps less romantic by flashlight,
but feeling a bit familiar
like grabbing a snack
from the hotel lobby.
And still, I’m very cold.
Please get the power back on.

There is something undone in me-
Something unwritten, unspoken.
A quietness I cannot escape.
Frozen in time.

Winter envelopes everything
in the deepest embrace.
Codependent to life,
She will not let go.
