“Blue hair”
“Yellow dog”
White girl
Stuck in analog
Purple haze
Miming Pink
Kids grown
Too much time to think
Rainbow daughters
Yellow/green/blue son
All loving factions
Of a family hard-won
(Kaleidoscope of photos--people, places all jumbled--no focus or reason--my life through all seasons)
Grey brick sidewalk
Big white house
Re-opened windows
Brand new, old spouse
Blackness of cancer
Green shoots of hope
Angry scars of removal
Ever bigger in scope
I am the absence of color
And all colors at once
Another white middlin’-old lady
BLM, Women’s March, Science March bunch
(Kaleidoscope of photos--people, places all jumbled--no focus or reason--my life through all seasons)
Time may be golden
Mine has been so much more
But my garden’s evolving
My red roses keep score
I will walk in the forest
Swim in crystal blue seas
Add these colors of nature
To my tapestry, please
Hold on as life’s changing
Embrace something new
Keep moving, yes forward
It’s all I can do
(Kaleidoscope of photos--people, places all jumbled--no focus or reason--my life through all seasons)

I write professionally in the legal publishing market, but enjoy writing fiction and, very occasionally, poetry.
Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.
