Without you, the world is dull and grey.
The sun is shining softly, radiating off of hues and black and white.
No longer will a teacher ask a child his/her favorite color. There are none that exist.
Without you, the world is a different place.
Does art cease to exist?
Would we find a new normal, or did we never know color existed to begin with?
If all color was gone would there still be discrimination over pigments in our skin?
Elimination of every shade
No burnt orange, and yellow leaves falling from the trees each autumn.
No multicolored flowers popping up into the newly grown green grass after the winter snow melts away.
Looking out the window to see the sky is no longer blue.
No rainbow after the rain.
Without you, the world is dull and grey.

The Summer I Was Chosen by a Northern Mockingbird
During the long, suspended days of the pandemic, a wild mockingbird began visiting my driveway and chose me, again and again. What started as a strange encounter became a brief, meaningful connection that I still carry with me.

My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.
