Persephone has left
for the Underworld,
along with
the wildflowers,
she so gracefully
gathers.

Though their absence
is brief,
they are destined, each,
to return,
once again,
in the Spring.

Pins and needles
I try to ignore them
too early to sleep
(again)
too late to rise
in dreams
I find you
why should daylight
mist over the field
where we laugh
loudly

I am the bolt
Of lightening
Striking jolt
So frightening

I am the you
#Undertone of me
‘Tis true
Time to set free

I am the light
No longer there
Be brave & write to fight
Soar Freebird from shame’s lair

I am the We
One voice
To be
Or not to be

The trump tariffs are working against the American people. And the trump administration is basically organized crime.

When the South wind calls,
the Learned know its promise,
its whispers of love
blanket us in purest light,
faith in brighter days to come

Come sunrise, I journey,
to the sacred lake,
where twilight dreams,
retire to fade,
for glimpse at Hers,
before dissipating,
like a morning mist,
whence dawn is breaking.

Awakened
with birdsong~
I do not
have to land
on this ground
I will stay
with my head
in the clouds

In a few weeks, after even more Gaza land is leveled and more Palestinians are starved to death, no one better be shocked when so many of us say, “I told ya so.”

This will be his greatest grift ever.
Historic even.

On #IndigenousPeoplesDay, I'm reflecting on those who first called this land home, their enduring legacy of gentleness, beauty, and respect for all life, and how white supremacy has attempted and is still attempting to erase it.

Happy Indigenous Peoples' Day - honoring those who walked these lands in tune with nature for centuries before the Europeans’ arrival and who continue to fight as caretakers of Mother Earth.

Did anyone with a lick of sense actually believe this claim was true? This racist, evil, narcissist with an authoritarian complex is a habitual liar for crissakes.

Enigmatic Scribe @enigmaticscribe.bsky.social · 2d

This is why trump has concluded recently that he believes his ass isn’t getting into heaven.
And neither will these ICEholes who inflict their racism, hate, and pain on others.

Enigmatic Scribe @enigmaticscribe.bsky.social · 2d

These ICE goon cowards with their covered faces are disgusting.

Enigmatic Scribe @enigmaticscribe.bsky.social · 2d

The feebleness of tiny hands on full display here.

Enigmatic Scribe @enigmaticscribe.bsky.social · 2d

This and so many other of these ICE kidnappings stems from all the illegal government file hacking of personal information from musk and his band of DOGE asswipes, isn’t it?

Conservation areas do more than just protect nature and the habitats of plants and animals.

They also help preserve our Souls.

I often dream
of spaces where
I wander, room to
room -

It's where I process;
where I haunt, revisit
conflict's ghosts.

In fact, I'll have you
know, there was once
one in mind for you -

a space

I wandered, always
searching, always
wondering -
why?
