Sunrise

Sunrise, as you enter the houses of everyone here, find us.We’ve been crashing for days, or has it been years.Find us, beneath the shadow of this yearning mountain, crying here.We have been sick with sour longings, and the jangling of fears.Our spirits rise up in the dark, because they hear,Doves in cottonwoods calling forth theContinue reading “Sunrise”

Comforting Thought: Hope is Awakened by Millions of Individuals

“Some will say that such hope is carried by a nation, others by a person. But I believe quite the reverse: hope is awakened, given life, sustained, by the millions of individuals whose deeds and actions, every day, break down borders and refute the worst moments in history, to allow the truth—which is always inContinue reading “Comforting Thought: Hope is Awakened by Millions of Individuals”

The messiness of being a woman

I’ve just emerged from a seven day storm of crying at the drop of a hat, hating everything about being alive and blubbing incoherently while holding various plushies brought home from the four corners of the earth, each imbued with a lot of temporal and historical meaning for myself and the Polish Bear.

in order to belong safely.”

Comforting Thought: There are people waiting to meet you

“there are people waiting to meet you.
people waiting to love you.
there are places that stand still

something really beautiful
could happen for you in the morning.
there is so much waiting for your arrival.
arrive there.”

What would you do if you won the lottery?

What would you do if you won the lottery? I would invest a third of the money, use a third to buy myself a home (I have never owned one, as where I live, houses are outrageously expensive) and use the other third to set up an animal advocacy charity or an animal sanctuary forContinue reading “What would you do if you won the lottery?”
