The walls were thin. I could hear him ranting and raving, cursing the poor soul who fell victim to his verbal assault. Sometimes she would argue back in her high pitched terrified voice, . . .

Fear is a waster,
shoving precious moments
into trash bins
where they live in refuse,
ticking away
as we lie in our coffins.
Fear is a cheater,
laughing behind . . .

How can you love
this restless woman child?
Stubborn, needy,
constantly changing,
so sure, yet so afraid,
pretending to be so strong,
but crying inside,
looking for strength
and running when I . . .

Once upon a time
I ran through grass as tall as me,
hiding there,
hoping nobody would find me.
The breeze would blow the grass,
and it would tickle me
as I crouched low, . . .

Do you ever stop and wonder why we have not had another terrorist attack on American soil?
The higher ups would have us believe it is all due to their undercover spying which crosses over into our freedoms. . . .

I remember my adolescence so well. It was a traumatic time for me at home, but school was also filled with trauma.
When I was in the seventh grade, my family moved to Pennsylvania. I didn't . . .

You used to look in my bedroom window,
stocking over your face;
It wasn't Halloween,
but I was still scared;
I even knew who you were,
but I was still scared;
Your face looked contorted,

She lives in her dreams
and walks among gods,
tasting the nectar
of all that is forbidden;
Colors so bright,
ever changing hues,
never basking in gray
or reality's gloom;
She dances . . .

Casey looked outside and noticed the sky was becoming a bit ominous looking. She shrugged and paid it little mind, other than to make a mental note to bring her sheets in off the line before it rained. . . .

I'm crying, and it makes me mad at myself.
I thought I was tougher than to cry over
being called a name. Haven't the years
hardened this heart, once so fragile? I
remember how I . . .

Last night I was
Angry,
But I grew up in a house where
Anger
was not allowed,
(at least for me),
so I had to find a way to deal with it.
Dealing with it usually means
stuffing . . .

I blossom beneath you,
for you are strong and sure
like the earth;
My petals open
to embrace you;
Dark is the night...
rare is my blooming.
Bitter seeds of doubt; . . .

She prays for sweet freedom every day.
When he hurls stones,
she deflects them with silence.
When he soaks her in his poison,
she prays it will not seep into her soul...
for she knows she . . .

Have any of you been to see the movie "Paranormal Activity"? If so, I'm curious as to what you thought about it. Some people were so scared they have walked out of the theatre crying. Others . . .

Fear
creeping up
attacking from within
attaching itself
to our deepest insecurities
our weakest points
making us feel helpless
and crazy
for even thinking
of dreaming

She came from a place unknown to most.....a place where most folks wouldn't want to go, even in their worst nightmares. And to be honest, venturing out of her home was scary. For when you live . . .

Like a kaleidoscope,
the colors and patterns change...
each one lovely,
each one new,
but how do I know which one
is the right one?
I dream in color...

Mama told me not to walk down this road.
“It gives me the heebie jeebies,” she said.
I don’t much care though…
Cause lots of things give Mama the “heebie-jeebies”. . . .
