Queens

Who do you spend the most time with?

When my cup has been poured

They fill me to overflowing

Heart wells up full of love empowering

To lift up my head and see their glory

All the ways they are winning

Lights me up

has me glowing.

Thank you queen.

Sineater

What are you good at?

I swore to god that I’d never write your name

Curse worse than the way Able was slain.

Dark spots where

Blotched out

There

Is no other love

Like the love of my own

Stumbled and fell

Got up to tell

Sineater

Take your pound of flesh

Sineater

There’s life after death.

handwriting on the wall

Do you have any collections?

An old gospel tune I’ve heard sung was:

“I see the handwriting on the wall,

Oh, handwriting on the wall.

Somebody read it, and tell me what it says.

I see the handwriting on the wall.”

Truth in love.

Are you a leader or a follower?

I am a leader who speaks truth in love

I am a woman whose heart’s filled with love

I am a mother who loves her children deeply

I am a teacher who never stops believing

I am a sister who fills in some of the gaps

I am a friend who wipes tears and laughs

I am a forever student who is always learning

I am a professional, morale merits earnings

I am a child who needs love and attention

I am a soul who’s divinely protected

Glamping

Have you ever been camping?

After 14 years I decided to camp,

Never really been outside or carried a lamp.

I was excited to roam, to finally be free,

A breath of fresh air, I’d been holding it for 3.

Almost that if catch my death

the way the cold ate up inside of me.

So off I went with all my trappings,

So much so the bag lady said I’m packing.

Thought nature would be glad to see me,

Let’s not forget the allergies,

I vetted and sneezed

And after on night I could finally see,

That that would be my last time camping.
