The Great White Male

I slapped on the visor and apron with uncertainty. Already I had worked the season opener for the local college team, now my volunteering efforts were geared towards opening day for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The USF game was its own special nightmare - scorching day, no breeze, collapsing bodies - but otherwise, sales at … Continue reading The Great White Male

My Upcoming Gig

Be proud of me. This is my 1st event flyer of 2016, and it's August. This represents a huge sigh of relief. A difficult start I had this year, but I'm proud I was able to recover within the 12 months. It's the Ishtar in me, I suppose. Can't keep a woman down too long! … Continue reading My Upcoming Gig

River Medicine

The first time we went out on the water, BF spent more time looking back and stopping for me than he did enjoying the adventure. For the inconvenience, on this time around, I assured him he could enjoy the trip without worrying about me, now that I knew the course of the river from launch … Continue reading River Medicine

On Self-Deprecation

  I am in a mood. I'm gonna compose some letters. Not going to mail them, just let the words flow cathartic. I'll print them on lovely stationary, then burn them, after I cross and cover names. Yep. I'm in that kind of mood. I'll start my drafts here for your amusement. To accompany, a … Continue reading On Self-Deprecation

Coming Down The Mountain

Gilded tendrils through wooden slats summon a new Appalachian day. I tumble, tumble giddy under feathery darkness my morning dreams launch me into flight... So begins one of the poems I created in that beautiful cabin nestled under ancient wood. The experience of connecting with nature at a primordial level is a powerful thing. My … Continue reading Coming Down The Mountain

Random Sketches

I'm working on two poetry exhibits for the coming Fall season. One to do with the Divine Feminine and the other on mental transformation and healing. Yup, big topics to chew on, but like my large five-rose tattoo, when I do things, I do 'em big. Pulling some sketches out for inspiration, and others to … Continue reading Random Sketches

So You Might Be A Star Seed

I admit, I'm being a little too research-intensive for a 4th of July weekend, but it's helping me keep focused on something positive. Ever have that? Such a constant flux of negativity that you have to FORCE something positive to engage in? Sad. Anyways, this weekend I'm going the phenomenological route by visiting the work … Continue reading So You Might Be A Star Seed

Bless the Zeitgeber

BF enters our home after dawn, returning from the previous evening's menschkeit. He finds me wide awake, sitting up in bed with the overhead light on, coloring in a black-and-white picture on my lap table. “What time did you wake up?” “5:50...” I respond, as I fill roses with crimson. He groans. “Go back to … Continue reading Bless the Zeitgeber

The Heat Is On

My hornets are thirsty. I can tell this morning as the long legged, wide winged, red boy who lives in the nest in the upper join of our front door hovers in front of the A/C unit, waiting for the fan to spit up the condensation building up from our constant usage. Yep, it's that … Continue reading The Heat Is On
