    One year ago,
    January 6,
    An unspeakable thing occurred.
    Our fellow Americans tried to defeat democracy
    By marching on the place of our government,
    The Capitol,
    And with the flames and guns and Confederate flags,
  • Moonrise

    As the sky began to fade,
    Into its dark dreamy depths,
    We sat with the fireflies,
    In the long green grasses,
    Together,
    You and me,
    We watched the sun fall,
    The clouds fade to dark plumes,
    And the stars twinkle into sight,
  • The Gray Area In-Between

    Right or wrong...
    Right or wrong...
    Answers swinging inside my head,
    Like the tick... tick... ticking from the clock on the shelf,
    Counting down the sand from the timer,
    The sand that's running low,
    Each grain,
  • Our future of death

    I look down at my feet,
    To the tracks trailing behind me,
    Carbon footprints.
    In them, sprout words,
    Growing out like the over pollen-filled plants:

    Sick
    Like the animals,
    Caught in nets in the sea,
