Long poems about healing. 300 words or more, most recently published poems first.
Healing is a Long and Twisted Road
When I started to heal
I didn’t realize how
Uncertain
It would feel
That the stages of
Self repair so clearly mapped out
By scholars
Felt like they hit
All at the same time
And as I began to
Search for myself
Unsure of myself
I’ve unsuppressed feelings
And they roar
And I want to scream
But I’m healing
And I need to keep level
Or I should be
secretly I’m still ...

Evaluating Your Self-Worth

Diabetes I or II
For anyone who has been diagnosed with Diabetes I (Insulin) of Diabetes II (Non-Insulin) before it become colder as the seasons interchange, I will advise you to get an overall physical.
In addition, a diabetic eye exam, to rule out any type of abnormalities of the eyes, Glaucoma, Graves’ Disease, or Diabetic Retinopathy, just to name the most important one's that hinders vision acuity.

Ballet Dancer
There’s a hole up in the roof, it’s where the truth is dripping in
an elephant within the womb so very hard to see
and green men in the forests who now panic ‘bout the trees
[
There’s counterforce prevailing that is failing in degree
since paradigms are wailing they’re unfit to change the ‘Quo’
as many clever people leave — they just don’t want to know

There’s giant bellows pumping air, a very strange device
that’s technified the Commons leaving people lost, marooned
who weep for missing children whom the devil wants to...

the healing word
The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to
the healing of the world.”―Marianne Williamson
tether not thou the tender tongue
that tempers tears and thorns,
when tyrant terrors thrust their throng
at you and blow their horns.
delimit not the lisping lips
that lave the limping loins
of him defeated by eclipse

seasons of woman
Spring dawns in a woman’s life
wearing innocence like a gossamer gown
eyes bright & heart full
hope held in the palm of her hand
a gift she’s anxious to share
as long as there’s love
there’s nothing to fear
she glows
scattering her petals across fertile earth
pouring her beauty into his keeping
believing her seeds will be cherished
as she does his
that he will see her worth
but he fades quietly away
leaving her garden untended
never seeing the flowers she nurtures & grows
~

Constitution
Any medical professional will tell you that 90% of a cure is human interaction
Doctors know that there is a psychological healing process to an illness reaction
The body within itself, is a self healing, self processing machine
If you're entered into a hospital, all that they do is just digestively clean
A few chemicals to cause the body to react the opposite of the illness
Or just clean out those intestines and allow the body time to heal itself
Take all readings down to zero and then allow the body to recalibrate
Placed on an IV drip and a patient...

Blessings come in 3’s
When I was younger, my sister had this sunflower cloak that was apart of this Halloween costume. I was so jealous of her and I wanted it, and would often sneak and wear it. I’d pretend to be a fairy in a forest where I was free to escape and time travel to any form of me I wished. I could be an alpha woman, with a pinstriped suit and a tipped fedora , sitting on a chair of gold running every business in New York, or a curvy woman sprawled across a piano with finger waves and pearls, owning every jazz club in New Orleans, or just stay in the present day and tend to my garden, watering myself...

Life's Necessities
While I try not to obsess over inanimate objects
there is one category I do make exceptions
not a car or a laptop, not even my sports card collection
more about a collection of items that has
year after year severed me so well
Not that they don't talk because oh yes they can at my urging
unlike mortals who grow old and eventually pass away
with a little TLC these things never fail to please me
in fact over the years the rewards have grown
with knowledge and command
One is solid white and is the longest of...

writing more often than least has been fatigue all across the digital sheets; highest form of inspiration would be-a healing heart that's sweet restoring this one, with life to beat.... soul just as beautiful as the body
a soul one dares to seek outside of dream....

Shattering Stereotypes: A Journey of Healing, Resilience, and Determination
My journey has been an uphill battle, as I continue to face assumptions and stereotypes based on the profession I enjoyed for decades. My admiration for the women I worked with and the stage, still remains even though I have not performed on Big Daddy's stage since 2005, when Hurricane Katrina devastated my world and threw me back home which sent me into a deep depression with PTSD. It took me ten+ years of soul-searching and introspection to heal myself and confront the demons that forced me to leave home at 14.
My journey of healing and self-discovery has led me to honor the...

WHISPER THE WIND (original draft) (7-5-11, 3:00pm, Palm Springs, California)
whisper the wind
breathe the sky
seize
and wholly embrace
the night
ask the moon
beg the sun
plead the stars
to appease
whatever gods
there are
here or beyond
you may either
choose to believe in
or not
lest you speak
to the god
you are
found within
this dream of all
to amend and heal
what harm
weve done
individually and collectively
over time
in our self destructive
species ...

Motherwound
Raise your hand
if your make up has been
irrevocably changed
by a mother wound.
(this is for you, us, them)
Put your hand on your chest
if you don't know what a mother wound is. And beat it there if you do
but it wasn't you it happened to.
Close your eyes,
stay with me,
and try to go with the goodness,
to move with the light.
My Mother had an eye for design,
traced across crochet curtains,
French dressing tables,
kilim rugs,
welsh dressers,...
