A scorching summer’s sun sinking making way for pale pink ribbons flailing disappearing into inky bluish black – We stood here once your back not turned – Do you remember who I am? Did that memory fade or does a […]

I am what I am and nothing more (yet nothing less) – a faceless voice praising a world made out of faces – always scorned for things I can’t control, alter or make undone but never praised for those things […]

I am no woman – I am a spark of life that lies dormant in somebody’s mind. I am a mote of galactic dust stuck on a tiny sphere with no means to escape from here – I am no […]

Liberated consciousness, self-realization – not really. Somehow realizing the “self” always has consequences for others – preventing others from realizing themselves. Escape your comfort zone (to boast about it) forgetting in your haste that your comfort zone does not exist […]

I carry with me a darkness that prevents me from taking flight, a burden of thoughts that possess and bars me from the light. I thought that I should name it to understand and will it away but names tend […]

I heard your question. I strove to answer. The words swelled in my throat, they got stuck, wiggling their way out, writhing, tearing at my windpipe – You just stood there. You just stared at me. But the words were […]

Once I err, a day thrown into disarray A solitary thread has caused a world’s unspooling Once I err, that fragment of day becomes the day A solitary moment that absorbs all else there was A chasm wherein I only […]

I am waiting to disperse, I’m almost on the verge of dissipating – let my components find rest if that’s the only kind of rest to find… I’m ready to slip past the past, the present, and into the future, […]

Spring arrived or so I decided today. The dark fog hovering in my head I willed away. At least for now the sun shines and the air is clear – the cold awakens thoughts and silences the nightmares – The […]

I have not the arrogance of humans – mine is not the voice of presumption – I walk among them in silence and they do not sense my presence – I have not the bearing of them – not their […]

You called me forth and I stumbled out into this light that blinds me. “Well, here I am – what is it that you wanted out of me? Not what you get? I see.” Well, here I stay mindful of […]

It’s not that I don’t care it’s that I do not have the energy to respond that which you want to hear. It’s not that I don’t see it’s that I see too much of then and now and what […]

Words are empty shells – worthless to describe a world that falls through our hands like grains of sand. If you try to define your stars and how you see them shine your words will kill the wonder and leave […]

A knot was loosened, the threads all hang and dangled in the air – How long remain together with nothing to hold them in place? The wind will throw them here and there, then they will fray, disintegrate and disappear […]

Seen from a distance people lose their eyes – be that distance in time, place or thought – and it is much easier to see someone that way instead of seeing them for who they are. It takes so terribly […]

I wake in the middle of the night with outstretched arms reaching for that which slips out of my grasp – the world, life, sanity, a future worth living in, dreams worth dreaming that actually stand a chance of coming […]

I wonder if I am the only thinking person in the world – or if perhaps the world itself consists of nothing but a thought – I wonder if these people passing me with endless words are capable of thoughts […]

I have no roots; I am an epiphyte dangling in the air. My thoughts are rootless, prancing here and there and everywhere. I have no wings so I can’t learn to fly – my restless thoughts keeps telling me to […]

I had a vision when I first browsed the web: An open world where information was available to everyone – information to improve the world. Knowledge shared and built upon. Improved, passed on. I thought; finally a medium for everyone. […]

The centrifugal force of words washed over her, swirled around her, made her dizzy. ‘But that’s what shrinks do’, she figured, watching with increasing numbness as the man’s lips kept moving, making words that increasingly seemed to dissipate and dissolve […]
