Twice a week, I treat myself to writing online with others. This poem came out of one of those experiences, for which I am very grateful.
Doorway
Planting Seeds
I wrote this short prose piece about teaching, but I think it can be applied to "self", too -- to trust the chances we take...
Poems About Not
Four short poems about things that are not, written by me and some family members.
The Market
On a now rare and frustrating walk, I felt a sense of loss and lament as I looked at the farmers' empty market, knowing it may not open in this season of pandemic.
Kindness
I've been experimenting with non-poetic forms lately, including flash fiction, like this 171-word story.
The Ice Flows: Exploring Purpose During Isolation
I hope the world will be different on the other side of Coronavirus, not because of things outside of my control, but because of the quality time I'm spending with Purpose.
Just Once More
It’s difficult to explain to a non-dancer what the loss of partner dancing is about, this thing we chase week after week, night after night, but I thought I’d try, with this prose-poem.
what happened here
This weekend, I'm writing for the Contemporary Verse 2 Two-Day Poem Contest. This is the poem I wrote for last year's contest.
Listening
I'm finding myself once again needing to tune out from news and social media, and this poem came out in the middle of all of that.
