    The Woodlands (A Pantoum)

    July 1, 2024August 2, 2025 Poetry

    Feet dangling off the dock I looked across the lake The mountains whispered once again The wind wouldn’t tell me what they said   I looked across the lake I saw trees singing around a campfire The wind wouldn’t tell me what they said But they all caught…

    For Tata: Bushels and Pecks (I Love You)

    June 30, 2024August 2, 2025 Poetry

    As a 28 year old woman, I’m insanely lucky to have a great grandmother in my life who I can pick up the phone and call. Especially since, she is one of the most special people I’ve ever gotten to meet. To me, she’s love personified and I…

    Mornings, Are They Upside Down or Right Side Up?

    June 21, 2024August 2, 2025 Brain Litter

    Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about mornings. To me, mornings have always symboled a reset button. The sun will be out again. There will be enough light to fund a new adventure. More time to walk alongside the sun. All the things you can’t do past dusk,…

    And

    June 14, 2024August 2, 2025 Poetry

    spindles and beams and tiny little trees  that keep our house from floating up to you   I’ll tie it to a blue jay  and he’ll drag us up there  and I’ll tell him you’re the man on the moon and he’ll have to take the journey to…

    Acidic

    June 6, 2024August 2, 2025 Poetry

    sugared eyelids brushed by cotton candy hair blowing in the wind   I glide atop iridescent wings through ancient lands and kiss strangers in the sticky fog   the cavalry is closing in pitchforks and hovercrafts they always come up empty   time is mine utopia in my…

    The Stove

    May 31, 2024August 2, 2025 Poetry

    ignite the sapphire and tangerine  turn the dial right bigger bigger bigger its sharp crimson tongue begins to swipe it wants to taste to me I can tell a finger or the pad beneath my thumb I could let myself simmer here a fire so tame even in…

    How to Fall in Love With Your Friends / A Guide to Stay in Love FOREVER

    April 1, 2024August 2, 2025 Brain Litter

    I’m always falling in love with my friends. I can’t help it! When you’ve continuously built up so much admiration, respect, and care for a person, can you truly help not to fall in love with them? Even just a little? I guess it would depend on how…

    I Just Wanted To Call

    February 22, 2024August 2, 2025 Brain Litter

    There’s moments without you. Sweeping weekends and slippery weeks. Months when I fear you’ve abandoned me. Or even worse, that I’ve somehow abandoned you. I never could, you know. Not truly. I think even in these blocks, you scatter my mind. Unconsciously and unaware, writing my e’s in…

    New York, New York

    January 30, 2024August 2, 2025 Brain Litter, NYC

    New York and I have this understanding. A pact or even better, a pinky promise. It goes like this: as long as I keep admiring her, she’ll keep me safe. If I don’t look for her dark allies or rats, then she won’t show them to me. Sure,…

    Remembering Wheatland’s ‘Tulip Lady’ – A Special to The Appeal Democrat

    December 14, 2023August 2, 2025 Articles, Writing

    On the chilly morning of Dec. 8, Pearl Graham, known as Wheatland’s “Tulip Lady,” died peacefully in her sleep.  You might have known her for her tulips, spunky jokes, or place at the bingo table, but until now, only a few knew about the courageous life she lived.  …
