bearer of bad news
fickle man
stamped with senseless fearcontrols a nation
but cannot
control who he isthe people he blames
he does need
but he can’t see this

Up at the sound
of a storm.
Alert on my phone
says, “Tornado Warning.
Take shelter now!”
& I immediately wonder
“How will I walk the dog?”
I have to turn off
my brain.
evidently, it’s not up
for thinking.
And work? Work is
calling. Maybe they’re not
thinking either. #Poetry— A Cornered Gurl (@trEisthename) April 13, 2020
I awakened this morning to the sounds of alerts, heavy rain, and high winds. A tornado passed through my area, but not my immediate location. Blessed doesn’t even begin to describe how I am feeling about that. I worked an almost 12-hour shift today and I am bone tired. I hope all of you have hugged your loved ones a little closer and a little tighter and that this evening will grant you peace and love.
NaPoWriMo #11
the days pass me by
now, I dream of glimpses
of her. those dimpled cheeks
rosey from laughter.
how can something so
amazing be contained in
a shell so small?
I want to deflower her
& save the petals.
I want to devour her
& free her heart. #Lust #Poetry #Micropoetry #NaPoWriMo— A Cornered Gurl (@trEisthename) April 11, 2020
There’s this gnawing feeling deep within me to be even more connected with someone who is dear to me, someone I’ve known for a little over three years. But, there’s also a lot of fear too. The core of me is saying, “Don’t take any chances,” but the smaller parts of me are screaming, “What’s the harm in trying?” I do not know what I’ll do I feel as though I’ll be lead down the right path if that path ever presents itself to me.
Thank you for reading.

I fell asleep
to the memory of
the sound of your voice
last night.
the highs & lows of it
the breaths between each
word
I can see you
talking with your hands
every sentence a
w a t e r f a l l
a place for me
to dive in and sink
deeper into
