sometimes you have to go back to your
childhood home
family community
to gather strength
and encouragement
to go out into the world once more
short poem day

bumble bees floating
past
second story windows
and
surviving the cold spell
we
just got through
stay safe little boomble

the calm before
the storm before
the carnage before
the healing before
the learning before
the calm

yesterday’s worries
turn to today’s realities
and mostly we feel silly
for so damn much anxiety
September 15, 2023
just some
morning pages
morning poetry
to get the day going
into the wild
into the craziness
into the sad sad adventure
that is today
~~~
seeing
the babies
step up
to be adults
is great
is great
is great
to see
~~~
green left
maroon right
blue body
and yellow hood
a sweatshirt
for all
for everyone
to be
cozy cozy
autumn
~~~
i can’t really concentrate
today
and that’s okay
that’s okay
~~~
who knows
how much
is leaving my brain
and staying
in any one given moment
~~~
teeny tiny poems
for a big big day
wild

how lost
am i
that i don’t
feel things
except panic
~~~
stressing
less
than i probably should be
given
circumstances
but more
than i probably would be
without
anxiety
(are they related?)
(probably)
~~~
maybe
some day
i’ll finish a
whole big-ass poem
(but probably not today)
September 9, 2023
when will my longing
return from the
war?
[a poem of irony]
[i think that’s the right way to use the term]
September 8, 2023
who else
has gotten
this far in life
just to
question
everything?
~~~
probably
a lot of people
actually
amiright
~~~
books
bringing
creativity
tv shows
about
gaming
where is the fantasy
in my own
life?
where can i
create
and write
and adventure?
where can i
do all the things
buzzing about
in my little
MaybeHD
brain?

windy mornings
cold cold ears
hood up
take a step
embrace the autumn
{spooky season approaches}
August 21, 2023
am i
getting back to
the regular?
am i
in a state
of consistency
again?
or do i still have
a crazy crazy week
ahead of me?
