The treble clef waits, and she holds her breath
Random notes hover, each afraid to fall

To #jump is to trust the silence
where melody becomes motion

She leaps
and the song flies

#Saturn looms high above the horizon
He wields Time and Judgement like sharp edged weapons
Medusa lifts her gaze—snakes whispering in fear
In her reflection, most planets pause
Not this god
Medusa kneels, and the snakes bow in reverence

My mask idles in a pool of serinity
Behind it, my ego rages silently
The two battle as they always do
I’m a #humble introvert, an imposter
Surrounding myself in a halo of false pride
An artist with no skill, no talent
So today,
I step back and let the truth breathe

I’ve been gifted the joy of a song,
the sight of grace in motion

My scars fade,
each one a lesson

My burdens ease,
and I’m left stronger than before

With only #gratitude,
the quiet is all I need

The staircase of my life
Full of missteps and falls
The moon has seen them all
#Regret isn’t loud, Luna says,
It’s the silence that follows

There was a word I thought of when I saw this image
I ease my toe into the realm of fantasy
Wade into my imagination
The word is there somewhere
I can #recall the wonder of it, but it has slipped away
I take the deep dive
Plunging into madness
And there it is …

The beast sleeps now
My wounds still warm
The #memory raw

Blood runs like sap from a wounded maple
She’s a carnivore, I remind myself—yet I return

I'm stuck in endless loop of violence
It’s the purr, that ancient siren-song
I am already stepping closer

I’m an author
I’m a writer
I choke on the words
Truth is, I’m a fraud,
a #boho adrift among the truly gifted

The word fraud slips easily from my lips,
Like tailored suit, it fits me
Yet here I sit
Stringing random words together

Another boring doorway
Reality lies beyond
Sameness seeps through its cracks
I need something less #monotonous
Something … beyond
The door behind though,
That’s where I store my imagination
No key required

The drug reaches maximum velocity.
I cling to the edge of reality as it bends
The view at the #apogee is a melting cathedral of color
Salvador eyes me and laughs
I am in his world now—and gravity is optional
