Entering the atmosphere everyone
Can see me clear. Putting out the dawning
Lights. Converting the midday sun into an
Instant night. Why does my energy wow the
People living here? I’m what they came to
See in every hemisphere, it’s clear I am the
Eclipse-sphere.

A Busy Memory
There was sunlight skipping off the road, reflecting off of other cars, making it hard for me to know which way I was flying by. If not for focus, there's no telling where I would land. Maybe I wouldn't land at all but instead continue sailing into the sun, into the light that burns holes where my eyes used to be. I wonder how it would feel to burn up while on the way to something with mundane importance. One moment you could be full of purpose and then in the next, you are nothing more than a busy memory.

Lifting the Curtain to a Successful Month
April has been a fantastic month for me in terms of writing endeavors. I’d like to share what’s been so great about it just as many other writers would do. Share successes. I’ve noticed other writers or artists have shared successes and when you just see the snippet of their success, it appears everything has been going right for them all along. But we haven’t seen behind the curtain, we haven’t seen their hard work and their failures and those months that were fraught with disappointment. In everyone’s case, it’s far from the truth. But for the outside observer it isn’t always apparent.

So clever and I really love the rhymes so much! ❤️
I admire your style and transparency even if you are still perhaps) avoiding my writing because I cross your personal boundaries. I love your truth in this.
Ohhh, I liked the perspective on this one!! How cool!
