through the world
sometimes it’s hard
to notice all the scars,
in the quiet hours
we can feel the rawness
of their rough edges,
clever marriages,
cunning compromises,
each lie, especially the
ones we tell ourselves,
they all come with a price,
ourselves small to
bring comfort to others
we give away
little pieces of ourselves
and a metamorphosis
happens, ever so slowly,
time and time again.
the crushing gravity
that holds your heart
in that unvirtuous circle,
it takes courage,
and it takes time,
they will whisper,
then they’ll whine
but know that the doubts
that nag you will quiet in time
and you will, again
find your missing pieces.
Just know, you are worthy,
by God, you are
so damned worthy.
I wish you and your families a wonderful Christmas!

Poetry should move us, it should change us, it should glitch our brains, shift our moods to another frequency. Poetry should evoke feelings of melancholy, whimsy, it should remind us what it feels like to be in love, or cause us to think about something in a completely different way. I view poetry, and all art really, as a temporary and fragile bridge between our world and a more pure and refined one. This is a world we could bring into creation if enough of us believed in it. This book is ephemera, destined to end up forgotten, lingering on some dusty shelf or tucked away in a dark attic. Yet the words, they will live on in memory. I hope these words become a part of you, bubble up into your memory when you least expect them to and make you feel a little more alive.

Most of us have experienced a moment of perfect peace at least once in our lives. In these moments we lose ourselves and feel connected to everything. I call these mindful moments. Words can’t describe how complete they make us feel.
These moments are usually fragile, evaporating in seconds. What if there was a way to train your mind to experience more of them? It’s deceptively easy and requires nothing more than a subtle shift in mindset. My new book, Mindful Moments, will teach you to be much more content despite the chaos and imperfect circumstances continuing to unfold around you. Upgrade your life experience today for only $15.99 on Amazon.com.
