Grade School Shame
((blue haiku))
Blue corvette, top down,
Tunes loud, cuts the carpool line
Pretend: not my ride.

Empowering Women: The Heartbeat of Every Home
They say that a woman has no home, However, there is no house without a woman. In the quiet corners of hearth and heart, She weaves threads of warmth and belonging. Her laughter echoes through sunlit rooms, And her tears water the roots of resilience.

Reaching Out
I promise her. I'd do anything for her. She's my mom. Even as Lanie and Deanna are flying home, Mom is scrappy fighting dying. She lays too still in that too-big bed with all the toasty white hospital blankets, in the south tower, at the broad end of a long slow-turning corner that delivers me again to her private room with the view she can't see through, with the beeping that tells us nothing new, and all these ice chips she can't swallow, and a flood of well-intentioned nurses who cannot do a damned thing all the same.
