no more schemes



no more schemes
just look at what is
and see it

what unfolds
in the space between
illusions?

don't blink


sometimes I
must move so quickly
or miss it

gray branches
waved a pink shadow
on the ground

brush strokes fluttering
images flicker, dance, and
evaporate- poof!

open your eyes now
beauty is all around you
be careful, don't blink

control issues



there are muscles and

there are some other muscles
my brain's the biggest

exercise them all
find your freedom and power
control yourself girl

the meaning of pink


I was wearing pink
by happenstance last night and
still they gave me more

ribbons emblazoned on
suit coats, blouses & sweaters
show proof that we care

racing for a cure
is the finish line pink too?
yes, I love my breasts

sibling rivalry


sibling rivalry
has always been a problem
in my family

jealous of the brush
the cat rubs against my leg
eyes the empty dish

fear of landmines



avoiding land mines
what is non-negotiable?
it's all up to me

do not draw the line
unless you're willing to play
this is scary stuff

bedazzled by sound




spirit filled voices
harmonizing sisterhoods

of sacred vessels

bedazzled by sound
voices soar in ecstasy
give it up for god

what would it be like
to find everything in song?

no thing left behind
