A Hint of Moon ~~~~~ With a whimsically dramatic Play of color, the sun swoons, An overwrought stage diva.

The darkness embraces her, As his sparkling cloak falls Softly, covering her absence, With, a […]

I seek escape from my nightmare, to return to […]
And Then I Know
And Then I Know ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ I, one evening, going out to a recital, look away from my life, a brief moment.

Word Farts
