Tangled
Sharp
jagged teeth
and a stinging bite
Lots of knots
snarled green
don’t get too close
or you’ll pay the price
watch your step
I’m feeling mean.
Subdrop sucks. Just sayin’.

Disorientation
From darkness
into darkness
open sky
to closed in walls
light reflects
everywhere
no longer
rain splashed pavement
but reflective tiles
and spots of light
contrasting with
shadows.
Sometimes a light drown feels like this. You go from trust and beautiful flashing lights, open sky and safety to a narrow spot where everything is too much too fast too soon all at once and overwhelming. The disorientation doesn’t last… but the feeling of vulnerability it creates lingers on.

The Plan
In nature
every little thing
has a purpose
even the tiniest of seeds
the most delicate of textures
the finest of hairs on a leaf
or faint waxiness
on a twig.
It all has a purpose
a reason
and a plan.

Radiant
Like sun
kissing upon petals
sparking up
the colors of my soul
from within
your attention
and devotion
feeds my soul
and leaves me
breathless.
I love you.
