Lemon-ade

In the middle of the journey of our life,
I came within a dark wood
where the straight way was lost.

Dante
The Divine Comedy

Milk Maid Makes a Wish

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky
of a tree called life; which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart)

ee cummings

Worth


My value is not measured by your opinion of worth. 

And the absence of my contribution is a lie. 

The voice of truth cannot be silenced.

Art Journal Story Poem - "Cycle"



















Cycle    
-art journal story poem

All her life
things repeat
...

been here
tryin' to get real about it.

Discord.

take me back,
take me back,
take me back,
Timeline.

Lists and lists...
what I have heard.

No.

...nothing needs to be in order,

the truths we tell will make the song.

I am vibrant

Begin again.
