For Myouou, with many thanks x Blessed completion of tasks sweetly won A moment’s rest after a semester’s work now done Refresh, reload and re-engage The beat of the drums in the halls of power and pathways of the mind Will grow ever louder and as the theories and theology of the brain Carve pathways…

Poetry: Cupcakes
For Leo, happy birthday! Cupcakes are like tiny bursts of joy We experience them in a way we don’t experience Other kinds of treats Something special Perhaps because they’re individual treats It should always be one each Because sharing a cupcake is the most intimate thing Closer than a kiss, it’s like splitting a soul…
Poetry: Happiness
The thing is that happiness doesn’t grow on trees It slips up beside you and trickles down like honeyed passionfruit in a summery breeze And it’s watermelon sugar on sticky hands and lips The sound of birds and bees buzzing about and softly rolling hips Always and forever moments standing still in time Sighs and…

Poetry: Measure by Measure
A look with a quiet, little message Knowing without saying, not just guessing See me become a blooming flower Connections made in halls of power Personalities ordered and reforming again In your shadow I will learn how to begin In the realm of the gods we walk together As I grow beside you measure by…
Poetry: Godspeed
For Knife Ears, I miss you. You’re on a journey somewhere and so am I Thousands of miles in a land far, far away My lullaby whispered on electric wind Finding silvery sharp tipped points And bidding you good night, sweet dreams Godspeed you back to me, and I to you Breathy words of my…
Poetry: Rosy Magic
Magic isn’t a ritual and it isn’t found in books It’s the will to survive and create change So when I say that I want to sprinkle Rosy magic On whoever I’m with What I mean is that I want them to thrive I want them to have courage To be a Queen or a…
