“A prompt, a pulse, a purpose
of the soul —to water a seed.

It will be the loneliest temple—
The most temporary cathedral.
A place that exists only to prove
existence doesn’t need us
—simply needs to be—
BOUNTIFUL It will be the loneliest temple The most temporary cathedral. A place that exists only to prove existence doesn’t need us —simply needs to be— for those eleven seconds when the world inhales and forgets to ask —if anyone is watching— remember you are here.

Fog gathers outside

a grief so small, morsel

Journal 📝 this year has been full
of blessings, prayers, mantras and
new opportunities or developments.

All of course, am grateful. But the moments like now, this week: am
overwhelmed, exhausted, underdressed and tired of being.

This happens in waves and shadows in my world. This is bad timing.

Parsimony

I have been
beguiled before
by complexity
adding layers
of meaning
to a simple smile—
building cathedrals
of significance
from #fallenleaves
that were merely
playing in dirt.

Please check out Ms. AWashington’s academic paper, which has real world import and includes vital action steps. The difference between performative allyship and true allyship is highlighted with distinguishing qualities and helpful examples. Important, engaging, inspiring!

This piece began analysis but
became something more personal—
conversation between survivors across pages and years. It examines Nobody’s Girl by Virginia Giuffre the
courage within it; the limits our culture still places on truth-telling.

Real-talk #SNAP | #WIC are
national #foodsecurity obligations
not optional programs. Restoring full benefits strengthens families—
supports communities;protects women and children’s futures.

Soulful [ Part 1 ] ⤵️
Soulful We-Be a-beat beneath your boot the rhythm fascism cannot mute. Every heartbeat, a ballot cast-every breath says: this shall not last. They built riches on-our silence... ourconsumerism. Yet, mistook our patiently for compliance. Not us; our souls don't bow- we rise! we roar! we remember, what -We're fighting for.... From Brooklyn to Berlin, Baltimore to Bangkok the pulse is loud. The answer's no. No kings.No chains. No gilded lies-Democracy doesn't beg; it fukeing defies and multiplies. MS. AWASHINGTON | ARW-RAW A SOLSEED JOINT © |

Oasis In the vastness where heat bends lights sand dune erases every footprint there she waits— a pocket shines impossible green. Palms lean toward a reflective water— shade, kind-of mercy stillness, needs proven she stands sentinel the pool held-up waves and you, finally arrive.

YOU ARE HERE 🎯

This isn’t a poem about:
“the future”—
it’s about the child at the
border fence, fingers curled
through chain-link, waiting for
a parent already loaded onto
a bus heading elsewhere.

YOU ARE HERE 🎯 This isn’t a poem about: “the future”— it’s about the child at the border fence, fingers curled through chain-link, waiting for a parent already loaded onto a bus heading elsewhere. This isn’t a poem about: what’s coming— it’s about the earth burning itself, glaciers calving into oceans; while we argue whether science is a matter of opinions or politics. Today is a luxury we pretend still exists—while everything we feared might happen is already here. So, I stop asking why we’re still calling it “the distant future.”
