Wrapped in the illusion of cause and effect
Lost in the Surreptitiousness
Stolen moments were spent
Aghast at the notion
It went as far as it went
A silent drop in the ocean
As the moon gently wept
His smile broadened deeply
The lines around his mouth formed
As he kissed her
He noticed she had completely transformed
Transcended from Heaven
this angel before him
A surrendered safe haven
A one way ticket to sin
But like ice, his intentions to stop
Were unyielding
And as the other shoe dropped
Her innocence, there for stealing
Too late now for him to take it all back
Her tattered dress soon revealing
Bracing for the impact
While the voice inside him was screaming
Tis the tale of desire
Without thought of consequences
Lusts the true definition of fire
Greener grass, neighbors fences

Art is My Meditation
art is a meditation you feel cleaned and anchored well with eyes open wide. Meditation has earned recognition as a mindfulness tool. It does not work for me. But I find spiritual cleansing and deep focusing with my creativity. Art is my meditation.

Thoughts on Vocal and the way the world is
"Death cannot stop true love, only delay it." – Wesley in The Princess Bride. I decided to come back to Vocal on a very cold and dark night at the end of December. I had been, and still am, convalescing from a horrible staph infection that had gone misdiagnosed for months. This, paired with the increasing challenges of being healthy, making the best choices for my co-parented child, being a wife, and being a director at a new job, was a lot to manage.

Dang! Very well done, Kelli! And that last line!
Quite the love poem of an affair that went bad. Whatever happened it was thought out relationship.
Wow. I simply love this! Thankyou.
