Humans who tripped over each other on different days, deliberately with
A little chaos, are just tangled enough now, calling
Names as you walk in the door
Knowing, more now that you have put it in words, this is the one thing we’re all sure about. This is solid ground.
Another day brings another mountain but
Living and not living here, she is still ours, and more
Love comes from harder hours.
You see how pieces collide and make this better whole because I don’t want a story that hasn’t seen some shit.

Yes, decide to trust whatever this is.
Almost like it is not a decision but a step that will lead to more.

Another monologue on something that matters- us, the patriarchy, the world.
Not needing to add, I listen. Sometimes I wish I could speak like that,
Nothing but fire and care, just a mind and a voice, leave the consequences behind. But for me this is the best way to say it, even if I can’t quite capture
All the things we say and don’t say. The night ends with us
Hanging on words we hope to remember tomorrow.
I love the acrostic and how
I love the acrostic and how accurately this poems captures us all
