She wimpered– “We had no hope.” The knife blades Slicing skin, The sweat, Pooled on soiled mattress, That was bad enough But the thoughts of dread Opened the demon’s door And he motioned with Cooked finger And imploded their heads With thoughts of nothingness, Numbness is bliss. So screaming hurt subsides And urgent craving satisfiedContinue reading “Hero In”

Acumen
Oh to have the kind King here to ask the women standing at the well for water. And to have them admit their shame of looking for a loving husband only to be seen as ones who are blessed. And to remember the only woman who was called ‘daughter’ by Jesus to be the oneContinue reading “Acumen”

Next, steeling into the bedroom to rouseContinue reading “My Perfect Morning”
