A battle rages, hour by hour,
๐จ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐, ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐,
Where whispers of doubt and fear begin.
A soul is trapped, struggling alone,
๐จ ๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐, ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐,
As darkness consumes, day and night.
Her spirit shines, though it feels so wrong,
๐บ๐๐'๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐,
Her worth transcends what meets the eyes.
She struggles to find the strength to break the clash,
๐ฌ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐, ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐,
Unveil the beauty, fierce and bright.
For healing comes when truth is stirred,
With love and support, she'll find the way,
๐ป๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐-๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐.

His Haibun
He does not like poetry; I write it anyway and do not tell him. It's true his face is not a poet's face. It is round and open, youthful; too apt to be compared to the sun. His nose is neat. It is impossible to imagine him smoking a cigarette, terse, full of cheekbones and tension. His warmth burns my fingertips. I am here for his fascinating body, the haphazard freckles I touch one by one; he is here for my eyes, just my eyes. A sunbeam sneaks through the curtains and pierces us both, sizzling the spices of his skin. I inhale and wrap myself in him. He kisses my eyes.

I was going through the stories I wrote way before Vocal and found a series Iโd penned on the American movie industry. I covered the economics of making and distributing movies, the ways the movie industry responds to modern challenges such as MeToo movement and the streaming technologies, and other topics, including some movie reviews.
