i try to wrap my mind around the idea that rage may be the only emotion that fuels me, that leaves enough time in my day for writing, that helps me express me in a manner so eloquently. i dare to say that i am in love again. all over again maybe a better way to say it. Could just be that he loves me again. i keep close to him, now because i want him, no longer because im bored. i’ve promised...
tomorrows next year.
2009 leave in peace. please.

A poem for Love.
Love.
Your losing your touch.
My heart barely breaks-or bends backwards for you anymore.
I bet I couldn’t even pick you out in a crowd of emotions.

I...
I hate you just so that I can feel something more potent than love for you.

Unfinished poem for Victor.
One of my students gave me his pencil as a Christmas present.
it was one of those nice ones, you know the ones where you click the back and the led comes out?
half an inch thick.
about four inches long, it was the heaviest pencil I ever held in my career as a teacher.
with the weight of his world. now in the palm of my hand.
i understand why he has such a bad temper.
i understand that his...
Merry Christmas.
There’s something charming about christmas eve that gets me every year.
I think Christmas eve and Christmas day are days when the city is most quiet.
and I always happen to be close to someone I love on those days.
Close enough to hear the heart finally speak above all the silence.
as tradition has it last night was indeed a good night.
a charming one. spent with a dear friend.
Hah! I...
Heavy is the head that wears the crown.
Origin
From Shakespeare’s Henry IV. Part II, 1597.
KING HENRY IV:
How many thousand of my poorest subjects Are at this hour asleep! O sleep, O gentle sleep, Nature’s soft nurse, how have I frighted thee, That thou no more wilt weigh my eyelids down And steep my senses in forgetfulness? Why rather, sleep, liest thou in smoky cribs, Upon uneasy pallets stretching thee And...
Just when I feel like giving up.
Just when I feel like giving up, or walking away.
Along comes that moment.
That spark.
That thing that gives me everything I need to keep going.
I am proud to know.
I have the heart of a King.
And the spirit of Warrior.
Somehow I know, even when I’m dead and gone.
The Movement will keep moving.
…till then. Move with me-

made a phone call this morning. It’s funny how one conversation can change the tide of your day. Either way, when I got off the phone I sat up. Unsettled, I sat at the edge of the bed just thinking for about 5 minutes. Walked around, thinking…. looked in the mirror, thinking. I even had a moment of clarity
….but I somehow seem to have lost it between then and now.

…woke up this morning with the thought of freedom on my mind. wondering where exactly in the conversation does true love get lost in translation. at what point does a warm embrace become a web. and how did we all become trapped.
there are no harriet tubmans for enslaved hearts.
no martins for martyred matrimony.
