b you b true

we fight the urge to be reclusive 

and elusive and we 

steady the emotional storm 

beam our sign 

irreverent into the heart 

of American darkness 

persuasive? i could give a fuck 

we are true we are real and 

pervasive

post election blues

you can find beauty 

anywhere

even in a swamp 

holdin on for dear life 

by a vine thick 

as a rope in the sand 

quick 

desperate

breath of life quivers 

like a candle wick 

afire ... 

lit

11.2

she filled the hollow with flowers
uplifting her mood
and when they struggled to raise their heads
she filled the hollow with water
and buried her heart
in the earth

Happy Halloween!

 the spirit had no attribute for it was clothed in their skin saw through their eyes and reached to avenge through their arms and fingers and nails

in his final shallow fast breaths fading he saw the one whose life he took ... no! it cannot be ... alive!

instrumentals

this morning the Cure instrumentals keep me warm as I try to express myself more and more. if I don't keep writing I tend to get lost and fear I will forget myself. so much static out there crossing my signals. got to tend to this fire or it goes up in smoke kinda feeling.  #katyamills

untarnished

blow by blow
on her back
taking strangers
decimated
the ego
sexy facade
sparkling bright
who will pay
for a night?
gave the last of what
she had away
save
the spirit
untarnished
aglow
