Changing Of The Guard Tableau

The setting sun creates long shadows in the cooling air, signaling the arrival of autumn. Soon, leaves will change color and fall, blanketing the ground. The once vibrant landscape transforms into a tableau of muted hues, under a barren, grey sky, accompanied by the raucous cawing of crows.

Winner Takes All

The Ghosts Of My Past

The Ghosts of my Past
Words of love spoken by a bitter tongue
Fall like darts on tender skin with their piercing poison
Protests fall on deaf ears
As engagement turns up the volume
Of anger

Made With Love

The writer reflects on the traditions and memories associated with the dish, highlighting its ability to evoke feelings of comfort and nostalgia. The poem captures the emotional connection between food, family, and cherished moments.

Bad Decision

As if it were that easy
Walk away
You can do it
The guilt is not yours to carry
It is no longer your karma
Walk
Walk quickly
Walk like you mean it
