she wears
a circlet of moon
on her finger . . .
the sheen of their love
now softened with age
a large raft
of resting sea otters
holding hands . . .
I never imagined you
drifting so far away
my hands
falter upon the keys
until a bird
reminds me of songs
I have yet to sing
Welcome to this archive of my published poetry, photography and art. Thank you for allowing me to share my creative passions with you, and for taking the time to visit.

I unfold my origami self / and swim into a lake of fire / washing my hair in ashes / the crane-legged words / of a thousand burning poems.
