it would hurt
to be the last woman standing
in this place that God
seems to have forgotten 
one day
I’m gonna open the door
and walk out
doesn’t matter
if the door closes back
or not

I go wherever my ink leads
and write

I write to bring light
into dark places
so others can see.

New Book! 7 Blocks...And Two Stories Up

Hi Everyone,

I've been away from this page for awhile, and here's why:

My first book of poetry, 7 Blocks...And Two Stories Up is officially published! It's about my journey from Los Angeles to Brooklyn while finding a sense of place, with all of the adventures in between. It's available through my CreateSpace e-store, also on Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk. To find out more about the book and place an order, please visit my page at:

Thank you for your support!

like mother
like daughter
a flower dies
the bud follows
no more blooms today

Rock

A rock that has no beauty
still serves a purpose.
It holds down the corner of my beach blanket
while I sit and think.
