Do It Differently
I’m angry at you. I don’t even know you, but I’m so angry. xxx While I understand that the depths of life have swallowed you up, you had no other option. It got too much and that, was your only way out, you didn’t have to do it like that. xxx Images will never leave…

Inspiration post – New Year’s Resolutions
I’m not one for making New Year’s resolutions. I see them as a waste of time and setting yourself up to fail by putting unreasonable expectations on yourself. My husband and I truly believe that if you want to make changes to yourself then you shouldn’t have to wait until the first day of a…

Weaving your words
You prey on the vulnerable. You have a way of knowing just who to pick. You pick your moments well. xxx You are a weaver of words, casting little spells over the women that you meet. You know exactly what to say so they get caught under your spell. xxx Except your magic is toxic.…

Inspiration post – The love of reading
Since writing poetry, I have been reading books in a new light. I find myself really taking notice of the way they write words, how that in itself can be poetry.

Inspiration post – Connections
Connection. What is that word? Why do we crave it so much, and why do we distance ourselves from it? This post might be a bit rambly today. No notes written, no inspiration… I had nothing prepared. That’s not me. However, I attended a meeting this morning.. A group of men and women coming together…

Start Small
Start small they say. Take baby steps; each day as it comes… xxx But what does that even mean? When something is so, so big? How do you start small? How do you even begin to pull that to pieces? Tiny fragments of something so huge? Breaking it down into bite size chunks. The problem…

Inspiration post – Element of Earth
I feel drawn to the element of earth. It’s a very powerful element as it’s related to everything. All the other elements come from it and assist it in its being. Whenever you eat food, you swallow a part of the earth. We essentially take in part of the planet to sustain our body. The…

Down to the bones
We dig down to our roots that our ancestors laid bare. Our history. The ancient ones. We uncover the dead and all their secrets. —– We are like La Loba. —- We collect the bones of ourselves that have long gone. We must protect and preserve all that is at risk of being lost to…
