long hair — don’t quite care
flowing down my face today
slapped into pigtails

buried the old ways
of ponytailing my locs
convenient beauty


Have you gotten your copy of my new book: a collection of serial tales & flash fiction, Séduire (E-Book and Paperback) yet?

I recently signed up to write on Substack as well. Poking the Bear’s Belly for Fun is a space for healing as I speak about the most recent events with my place of employment as it pertains to racism and discrimination. I welcome your visit.

Peace and blessings!

NaPoWriMo #7 Haiku, 3 Parts

spring-summer-winter
which one is here currently
confused by weather

a balmy sun speaks
pollen sticks to our faces
cold air comes again

the body is weak
from changes upon changes
which season will stay
