In realms of thought, I dwelled my days,
A world estranged, afar it seemed,
Embracing tales in silent ways,
Where magic wove what I had dreamed.
But tales alone can't quench life's thirst,
Nor prose complete the living creed,
No fleeting joy in chapters versed,
True bliss awaits a bolder deed.
A trauma's grasp veiled present's bloom,
A shield well-meant, but hearts confined,
To taste life's nectar, to feel the room,
Beyond the shadows, freedom to find.
Now, grounded, rooted, I emerge,
Inhaling life's refreshing grace,
The mind, my ancient friend, did urge,
To claim my truth, embrace my space.
No more within a story's crook,
Yet someday, I'll recount my glory,
For I have found the path to look,
And scripted now, my life's own story.

Helen Keller
in honor of 'Repeat Day', June 3, here's to the miracle worker, Anne Sullivan, in so many ways in the common world, there is not room to be normal. in a place where nobody is special, everyone wants to be extraordinary. where everyone hates the everyman strives to be. everyman strives to be. every man strives to be. but nobody is listening now. can't hear thunder in an echo. punishment from the pedestal on the hill. i am high and they are mighty, legendary. but i am legend. and everyman knows that every man shits and every man dies, but legends never bite the dust. they are made of ghosts, mass graves of the everyman all around me, everyman living dead inside, buried before their time. doing what Helen Keller would be if she was alive today.

The Crumbling Walls
*Contains Spice She knew kissing him was wrong. Every stolen moment chipped against the wall of alliances that Mother created to protect their land. The parentage of their daughter was more than enough to destroy the wall completely and unleash the full might of the Uhitaji clan. But as he pressed her against a small corner wall on the battlements, none of that mattered. His hand slid down her wide hip as their lips danced in unity. She wrapped her leg around his waist pulling him even closer. Their shared heat burned the world around them to nothing. There was nothing else, nothing left but them.
