  • Alone

    I do what I’m told

    I have friends

    I try my best

    But it isn’t enough

    I ninety feels bad

    A failure

    But for some people it’s a win

    I don’t want to squash their victory

    I don’t know how to feel

  • Skyward

    I rest on

    The stiff wooden bench

    With a view of the lake.

    I scroll on my phone,

    Oblivious.

    I then look to the heavens,

    But see little there,

    Just endless ribbons of cloud

    Strung over blue.

  • Spinning

    Around and around,

    Plunging downward,

    Soaring.

    Floating, 

    Just for a moment.

     

    A bird,

    Lost in ecstasy,

    Unaware of the coming end.

    Slowing, drifting down,

    We stop.

  • Trapped

    I hear about all the things he does,

    But what can I do?

    Signs,

    Bumper stickers,

    Voices,

    Celebrate the end.

    For democracy, 

    Our country, 

    Ukraine, 

    the LGBTQIA2+ community,

  • Forgotten

    Whisked away,

    In a dark unknown.

    Long fingers pull us out.

    Scrutinize.

    We’re unlaced,

    Laced again,

    Step by step we thud against the ground.

    White turns to gray,

    Soles become worn,
