I worked hard on it
we worked hard on it
cardboard piece by cardboard piece
completed with neon yellow construction paper and pipe cleaners
hot gluing the cardboard

Norbert the Norwegian Maple
It stood there since before yesterday

before we moved into this house 7 years ago
before I was born

The "bejeweled" stapler
This was for a prompt where you choose an object and write about it - my object was a mini stapler covered with plastic gems.
The stapler sat on the pedestal-like black block

Wishing upon a satellite
Darkness
swallowing up the sunset
streaks of gold and orange and pink fading to a dark navy blue
then, finally
once the sky has been painted over with a seemingly endless coat of black
the stars come out

yom kippur
the world was gray and cold when i rolled out of bed,
the first frost of the season just barely
kissing the ground. i tied the morning
into shoelace knots and hugged forgiveness to my chest.

Feeling stupidity
Is this love?
This riding every high
And crashing burning like a sugar rush gone wrong
It's so weird
So elated
And then so depressed
I soak my pillow with tears and giggles

Crashing low against the waves
Burning like the sun but I will never be
Up there I will always be
Down here so
I'm bringing it
I'll tell you a story
