Rub It In

Rub your dreams into my back
until they're real--
Until they curl around each synapse--
Until I feel
that you won't fade or disappear
with day.

Kiss your thoughts into my hair
until they're real--
Until they penetrate each strand--
Until I feel
that you won't loosen up and
roll away.

Squeeze your words into my skin
until they're real--
Until it quivers with each whisper--
Until I feel
that you won't leave the sheets cold
but just stay.

Shave

                                                                               I got a shave cut it all off. All of it. Done. So what? It's just hair.... They call me brave but I'm not, not really.... The one who is is the one who lives each and every day in pain, in knowing that she has one less day to spend with us here. Now, that's real. That's brave . Just so ya know.... The one who raised me just the way I am bold, free, unafraid of what you think or say, teaching me that I am more than the sum of my parts. I am more than the sum of these little stubbles of hair on my head Why do you look at me like that? Don't you see the glow around me as I channel her strength to me and become what she already is and more. She's seen, done, and made more than I'll ever be able to-- not that I'd try to duplicate or copycat her vibe, her style-- not by a mile! I have a bit of her in me, in here, inside, sure, no long

Inaugurally yours.... OK, I guess it's about time that I finally put myself out there in bloggsville; I mean, after all, just about everyone I know seems to have one--"everyone's doing it, so why not ME??" is the rationale I'm using at present. And for those of you who know me, you KNOW how opinionated I am, and much of what I think seems to draw either chuckles or gasps, or even eye-rolling. So, in the spirit of expressing my true self, here ya go..... Since it's the start of a new year, and a new regime, I keep the quote in my head, "Hope springs eternal." Now, I know that politically and socially, our current system seems to be broken; but hopefully, not irreparably so. That depends on the folks on which it rests--US. Yup, WE the PEOPLE....From the lowest levels of our individual households, to our neighborhood associations, to local city/township communities, to counties, to states, to regions, to the FEDERAL level--it all begins with US. What wi

Tongue-tied

Sometimes when words escape you tongue twists and tangles, scraping the mindless, mangled mouth-- yet nothing comes out-- strangling shout-- moving and stammering you, reducing your daily brilliance into blah blah blah blah . 'Scuse me? You heard me! Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah! Say what?! Ugh!! What was that? Sorry, didn't quite catch that, sounds just squirming all over the place, feeling their way around, up and down, noise and sound bubbling, brewing, bouncing around inside my mouth, kickin' at my teeth to get out-- OWW!  Wow! Hey, now! Settle down! Now, where was I.... Ooooh, wait, what was that? Mmmm... Kinda tasty.... Not bad, not bad at all.... Don't nibble , bite , just chomp down . Like you mean it. You know you want it. Open up wide, now-- say, "Ahhhh." Mouth watering, dripping goodness oozing ripe fullness of being everything you wanna say or do, but won't, can't or don't, right ther
