Awakening

A fleeting moment A glimpse of disapproval veiled in silence stayed with me long after  you’d forgotten all about it… Today I decide to move ahead shaking you and your views out of my system you do not exist for me as much as I do not exist for you https://dversepoets.com/2020/07/14/dverse-poetics-8th-year-anniversary/

Identity

it takes a lifetime to build something  so fragile so mutable and so dependent on another’s view I enjoy Changing it like a cloak Yet, the label fails to contain me Define me Refine me Or make me  What I want to be… Let identity go for a walk While I try to understand life.. … Continue reading Identity

Stardom

“Cut my veins, the blood is blue”… famously said someone  who’d not tasted the hue Into the blues, he dived with gallons of alcohol….

Art

Divine #writephoto

my silver fingers give away secrets of the night the piece of moon I yearned for was finally within reach It slipped out like water from the cracks of my hand but could not take away the light I know it when eyes meet divinity touching lives transforms all and each https://scvincent.com/2020/06/25/thursday-photo-prompt-silver-writephoto/
