So please grant me peace from the demons I see. They crowd me and stalk me and won't let me be.

The Road
He walks down the road. He tucks his head down to avoid the cold. He's on a mission. This we both know. To everyone else he's just a man that walks.

Something So Simple as Time
It's something that the majority of people do not pay attention to. We pass each other on streets corners, at the grocery stores, taking the kids to school.

These Are the Hands I Hold
"Everyone rushes in here so damn fast." Jokingly I say to my husband, "they remind me of the horses at the gate at the Kentucky Derby."

Just a Few Minutes Sooner
I've been floating up here for over an hour. At first I was reading the doctor's lips. They found her frozen. That's crazy, I thought.

Today They Took My Blue Away
They took you from me today. They stole my Blue. Placed me in this grey. All my colors have faded. I can't sleep. I can't function without you.

My Dirty Hands
Standing in the bottle return area. At the wash basin. I'm in WalMart. It's six am. I thought I was alone. Aren't I always alone?

What If?
What if I didn't want to? Could I have the choice? Is the alternative still an option? What if I wanted more? Can I raise my hand to be selected?

Too Far from Home to Run
Too far from home to run. This Depression has me crippled. I can't move. Like a lucid dream; one from which I never awaken.

Loyalty
I sit in silence, I sit in darkness. Like an musician tuning his guitar. Trying desperately to hear your voice. My eyes are wide, my interest piqued.

The Face of Poverty
If you know me personally, then you know life has been somewhat of a living hell for me this past year. I have lost so much. More than some lose in a life time.

The Galaxy's Edge
The Galaxy's Edge was a vast green countryside filled with the universe's tallest and oldest oak trees. These old oak trees touch the bluest of skies and fluffiest clouds. This magical place is positioned right off the center of the Earth and Northeast of the focus of your telescope. So in your greatest imagination, with no outer limits, you may begin to create the space that will become for you The Galaxy's Edge.

My Inner Child
I've been doing some reflecting, And my inner child is screaming like a bitch. What could you be mad about? I thought to myself.
