Palms rise to the universe as we moonshine and mollyFeel the warmth, we’ll never die, we’re like diamonds in the skyYou’re a shooting 6 see, a vision of ecstasy It’s been a long day here. Cleaning out storage space, filling up bins for pickup. Finding long-forgotten gems. Telling […]
Can I be obnoxious? Can I be snide? Can I be funny? Can I make jokes? Can I be ok? Can I heal and break? Can I move forward and stay in the present? Can I add snark to my cereal? Can I be more than sadness? Can […]
She had a deep wound. A wound that hadn’t healed for 20 years. She didn’t allow that wound to fester and take hold of her life. She was even able to grow and ostensibly fertilize certain parts of her life. She had a fantastic tomato garden wherein she […]
