To write a good text

you must dare to be naked –


to be embarrassed.
The parts that embarrass you (Irwin Allen Ginsberg)

Collection "WriteWiser signage"
We are the forsaken son of Noah
And   water keeps flooding
we are the small tiny ant we step on
Without even knowing

We are on our own
Scared to the bone
And The end is coming soon

We  Got no ark
And the road is dark
We can't change fate
But surely we can bark.
These are the hands that will guide you to greatness,
These are the hands that will stay through the years,
These are the hands that will celebrate good times,
And these are the hands that will wipe away tears.

These are the hands that will love you forever;
When you are weak they will help you feel strong,
And, right now, since these hands are entwined together
These hands are precisely where they belong
Recently I was asked to write and perform a hand-binding wedding ceremony for two of the loveliest people I know while I was dressed as a dragon. It's definitely one of the best things I've ever done, and I doubt I'll ever do anything like it again! This is the poem I wrote for the special moment.
The scars of
Who we are

The stories of
All our glory

The songs of
Lives lived long

The beauty
Of our sweet cutie

The telling a
Of all our yelling

Piece it all together
Puzzles with letters

Amazing poems written
We all get bitten
The writing bug is inspired by other poets. Read other people’s work and we learn so much!
Why is your heart broken my love?
I waited days to speak to you.
But words had failed me
I seek solace in your company but receive only romance
I wish I could touch your face and know what kissing the tears of heaven feels like
Let me nurse that broken heart that had gone amiss

The Noose
Will you say to them
when I'm gone
I loved your daughter
For the fire on her tongue
arms flung open
the devotion in her bones, still.
Everything is for a reason,
Mostly, for a stupid one.
