    How

    How do we live 

    Knowing others cannot?

    How do we breathe 

    Knowing our comfort is at the hands of hidden devastation?

    How do we laugh

    when all around us Tears seem to be the only logical response?

Loves

  • Flurry

    My heart breaks

    For every snowflake

    That twirls down,

    Solitary

    Amongst a gray sky

    It looks lonely, you see

    Not as if I don’t know how that feels.

  • Fallen Tree

    A tree is downed in the forest

    It appears as a skeletal hand resting upon the snow covered floor

    Brown beneath, like ivory rotting away as it ages 

    And pure white on top, bone bleached by the sun.

  • writing makes it real

    I sat down to write a poem about politics,

    About how our country is tearing itself apart,

    About how we’ve tried to glue pieces back together,

    About how somehow it’s already been a year.

  • Small Things

    I’ve started looking forward to the little things a little more 

    Than I look forward to next year

    Because it feels like next year is uncertain.

    I’m excited to eat peanut butter toast in the car before skiing,
