Freckles of a Past Life
On my right forearm, I have the mark of an animal. Two dots and a base shaped like an imprint. This could be one of two legs or one of four. It’s not clear, but my heart confirms the essence. Every action made with my right hand Holds the weight of a different … Continue reading Freckles of a Past Life
L is for…

The gentle caress of the wind guides. Free falling for eternity. But White bareness encroaches and they retreat, Only traces here and there- to grace us once … Continue reading L is for…

Captain America’s Strength
I’m with you till the end of the line. ~Steve Rogers Red; The color of passion, yet blood. White; The color of goodness, but also representing blankness. Blue; The color of calm and wise, but synonymous with sadness. Dual embodiments duel for dominance in a torn body. Fingers twitch with the need to write … Continue reading Captain America’s Strength
