guess a house was what i grew up in.

all those white walls and deep breaths,

gloom was constant and clandestine

steady second guessin

cuz you never knew what was next.

silent movies behind windows

and tear blotched texts


so home was what i found

sown, nurtured, and grown.

my solitude is my protection

my fortress and freedom

by far the best thing i’ve ever owned

something stirs doesn’t it,

familiar and magnetic


felt between heaving breasts

that rides every breath-

from the depths of your bones

you think of little else

save for that call back home

to journey past the unknown...

Tallulah set yet another coffee cup on the table, adding to the pile that had gathered steadily over the past few weeks



Mold and yellow chunks of cream curdled in the half emptied containers that she never seemed to finish- despite ordering the largest size. Every. Single. Morning.


A tart velvety stench clung to the back of any anyone’s throat passing through the kitchen but don’t ge...

Prima Belladonna

The shadows grip and squeeze

until I collapse with a snap!

Stifled by the hushed quiet of

a long forgotten dream.


My carved smile has faded

in time with the colors and music,

but still I wait for the mercy of your eyes


when you open my cage

and twist me back to life.

I unfurl to a melody that

you’ve imbued with hope

if only to fouetté ur troubles away.


But for a few twin

Before the Velvet Rises

The moment before you disappear

carved into

my heart and memories-

twisting, turning

into the music you dance through



Lie yourself bare and

show me your soul.

Behind the curtain- everyone’s abuzz

heart pounding.

Crowd murmuring. Lights lower


A deep breath before the velvet rises

and you are no longer you,

but a vessel

for my hopes

and my dreams

and my pain


Break a leg....

They’re Coming

The cream parchment unfurled onto the lamp lit desk with a satisfying ‘fwip”, knocking over a little vial of pepper.

Leif leaned forward to stroke the sprawling indigo ink titled “Invoice”.

It was probably the finest paper he’d ever seen, and he’d stolen stationary from royalty.

Do you remember,

the clouds were frosted with pinks and golden tomorrows.

and what of the setting sun?

whose flames extinguished from behind you on the plane.


Dusk kissed the palms who waved

good-bye with great fronds.

Night embraced the ancient cacti standing guard in the absence of light,

they tower in proud solute.


and the last rays skim over the land

broken glass and b...

A promise.


That’s what they told us, the ones who had dared to ask.

The Olders lived up in the mountains, in damp shadowed caves on beds of moss and poisonous mushrooms, exiled from society.

They alone had taken the perilous trip beyond into the Gauldrim. They alone had payed the price of light to escape the constraints humanity had placed upon themselves. Venturing into the beyond had ...

Finally.


The remnants of your consumption

smolder like

raked embers,

Mere fragments of your

Unforgivable.



Yes you,

the lasts of the tsunami

that drains from the shores.

Your misery seeps,

an aching pestilence.


You won’t be missed.

I hope to see you never more.

The sigh that escaped my lips came from my very center. I draw on all my patience,

“I was gone for five minutes! What happened here?!”

The walls were smeared from floor to all of about 3 and a half feet up with bright purple crayon and meat sauce. And parsley.

My 4 year old is scribbling furiously and bracing himself against the wall with his dinner covered hands as if in dee...
