New! My poem "Sometimes I Stay Quiet, So I Don't Launch An Attack" appears in Writing In A Woman's Voice today!

"Even if I dislike or disagree, I have a hard time

thinking I can end something by quickly hitting a button,
tossing them into an online pile of trash.
Maybe I give too many multiple choice chances
to rancid meat or maybe I don't give enough.

Maybe I am too messed up and broken
and divided into conflicted fragments"

in my poem "Sometimes I Stay Quiet, So I Don't Launch an Attack", appearing today in Writing In A Woman's Voice (thank you very much to editor Beate Sigriddaughter)

NEW! My poem "Throwing It Away Doesn't Mean It Didn't Happen" is newly up today at Writing In a Woman's Voice!

Today another poem of mine, "Throwing It Away Doesn't Mean It Didn't Happen" is up online at Writing In A Woman's Voice!

"It's your fault for pulling an ex-friend's hair out
of the bathtub drain and placing the hair on a condescending letter
as if you were better than them because you didn't shove your own hair
down that drain. Instead you obsessively hacked your own hair off
and stuck it inside a tiny garbage can with the bathroom door locked."

NEW! My poem "Does Lard Go Bad?" is newly up today at Writing in a Woman's Voice

"Because pregnant bellies are so sexy,
but a flabby middle-aged gut is the total opposite
of life. Because the bodies you rolled
your eyes at 20 years ago are now you"

in my poem, "Does Lard Go Bad?', newly up at Writing in a Woman's Voice
