Roses And Relations Reborn in the Big Easy
Roses And Relations Reborn in the Big Easy
I woo my sister. “If the lover of Prospero’s daughter were not fictional wouldst thou not be his leading lady on the stage called life?”
“Dost thou make oracular airs? Such prophecies are not made in jest,” she says.
“Ah, just a portent of love glimpsed from afar.”
“Given my impeccable femininity attested to by thee wouldst thou let a bitter man’s choice fill thy shoes?”
“Since our womb abode was the same surely to share the same bed would be a blasphemous deed.”
Ro replies, “Yet brothers to sisters are...

Best Friend
My brother and best friend. When you were taken from us that Sunday morning I had to become strong and steadfast in so little time while learning to grieve and to know that its ok to still enjoy life and everyday things. It doesnt feel right it feels strange. I want to scream I miss you I want to talk to with you I want you to see all of the progress. I know you're always near but it will never be the same, Until we meet again on the other side. Your little twinish sister

Abigail
A cardinal song bird
Balanced on a Gail of scales
She is liberated from putting on airs
By getting down to earth
And working with others
To decorate a Greathouse within The Great Work
A rouge a rose to soil her beauty
Only to prick the hand
Who thought it could grasp
That which stems from her ability to thrive
Even uprooted, she still remains
Her Father’s Joy

Pair of socks
As I sit here in front of you tonight
I wonder why you left without saying goodbye
Wondering how fast
In a blink of an eye, you’re gone.
There are so many things
I want to share with you
So many words
Left unsaid.
Rest now my lovely sister
I wish in heaven
There’s plenty of chocolates,
And unlimited cakes.
Coz I know
How much
You are
Addicted to sweets.
Don’t worry about us
Don’t worry about Mama and Paps
Don’t worry…
We are very much ok.
You’ll always be ...

A Lullaby in January or A Portrait of Sisterhood
I’m in first grade and the bus drops me off at the bottom of our steep driveway. Jamie waits for me at the top. Papa's girlfriend forgot to leave the door unlocked when she left.
There is ice and snow on the ground, and it will be dark soon. She holds my hand to walk through a patch of woods to the neighbor’s house to use their phone to call Papa.
III
It’s brown powder with tap water sitting in a plastic cap. I don’t know what I expected, but I guess not that. I thought poison would look more alchemic, like a simmering cauldron of black ink.

Great Day
She had a great day
She had a great day
She didn’t have to stay
My sister has a black spot
The thing we wish we ain’t got
Hers is in her head
Ours is what we truly dread
She had a great day
Told her she didn’t have to stay
She had a great day
She didn’t have to stay
The dread of our own span
And she can’t stand strong
It was her party day and
She can’t play…
Even on her Day…Her own Day
She had a great day
Told her she didn’t have to stay
She had a really great day ...

2001 Space Oddity (2024 Insanity)
2001 space oddity (2024 insanity)
2024 living backwards
Backwards is forward
Up is down in conspiracy
Lies rise truth hides
Neighbor now my enemy
Not from anything we’ve done
The bond between us hope it doesn’t die
You’re surfing in a tin suit waves of absurdity
You start to turn and listen
You don’t listen to me drowned in conspiracy
You believe the lies he sells
He makes you hate me and you gladly oblige
You gladly fund his legal defense fund
When he has billions but...

She Speaks
in warm metaphors
from the heart for it's
what she knows
a way to survive
she's a true fighter
exposing her soul
the agony of her past
shamelessly despite her
fears and insecurities
yet do not ever let
her softness fool you
she is fiercely protective
of the ones she loves
razor sharp in her
smart observance
sensually seductive
in her erotic ink
as she breathes
new life into her fire
worn-out & weary
taking us with her
our precious...

You are taller than I remember
We both grew up,
and I do not recognize you.
You do not recognize me
either.
I wonder if you
remember us
like I
do.
I see us,
at the kitchen table,
the clock ticking
a reminder of sleep.
We talked about
shared secrets,
favorite colors,
and how to be better.
It was a long time ago.
We were so small.
My room was green.
Yours was blue.
That table is gone now.
The house too.
Nothing made it out of there intact.
Not even us.
But I still...

light cannot be restrained
watch how she moves
so graceful...
despite the pain
& it's a constant
always trying to force her into submission
yet she maintains her composure
knocking at each door
making sure voices are heard
then uncapping her own bottle
pouring ink in equal measure
her playful nature...
...& her agony
into concoctions & lyrical cocktails
alternating honesty with entertaining
wholly relatable
as we laugh at her word play
& lose coherent speech
when she bares herself
despite fear...

You're So Hungover, Sis.
It looks like
you're so hungover, Sis.
The guy you were found naked with is
still throwing up in the bathroom and you still have
no way of knowing who he is nor
how you got those tattoos
on your skin.
