Poet Introduction
Concision and Paradox are my weapons of choice. I'm a haiku fiend and an imagist.

What you see in me
And what I see in you
Are so much more
Than other people see
WHEN THEY LOOK AT US
And what I see in you
Are so much more
Than other people see
WHEN THEY LOOK AT US

You are a stick
Of new gum
Watermelon
Flavor crystals
Never wears out
Always fun to chew
Get lost in the giant
Bubbles
FLOAT AND POP

I hope I'm as resilient
As your hair
You said
You've both experienced
A lot of loss
I replied
A CLEAR HEAD
As your hair
You said
You've both experienced
A lot of loss
I replied
A CLEAR HEAD

You know what I like
Better than American?
White American!

The tree weeps
Because it is natural
To weep when you are scarred
THE EARTH HOLDS ALL PAIN
Because it is natural
To weep when you are scarred
THE EARTH HOLDS ALL PAIN

I am a sap
The blood of a tree
I'm weeping you see
The blood of a tree
I'm weeping you see

THE NATURE OF SUFFERING
Nature is suffering
Because of humans
Refusing to suffer
Now suffering brings
The wisdom to humans
Nature once brought
Because of humans
Refusing to suffer
Now suffering brings
The wisdom to humans
Nature once brought

POUNCE!
There is no precedent for you
And I like that
Both the past and the future
Stand and watch
And I like that
Both the past and the future
Stand and watch

I run smoothly down
Your page, discreetly piercing
Fibers here and there
MY INK

RADIATEURS
The room is cold
The blankets are light
We are each other's
Heaters for the night
The blankets are light
We are each other's
Heaters for the night

I rub my belly
For comfort, as if I am
Pregnant with myself
For comfort, as if I am
Pregnant with myself

BONE BROTH
Your anger sits
On the back of the stove
Always on simmer
Full-flavored
Ready to pour
Into the skull bowl
Of those who do not realize
They are starving
On the back of the stove
Always on simmer
Full-flavored
Ready to pour
Into the skull bowl
Of those who do not realize
They are starving
