I know
the feelings she
stirs in my ***** when I
look at her are wrong 'cause she's my
sister

Sometimes I get silly when I write poetry . . .

when they're
eating my brain;
I hope they choke on my
fears, self-loathing, and mostly my
regret

the trial
is over; the
debate’s just beginning
they’ve all just earned their Facebook law
degree

Judge Not

they frown
at my tattoos
as I ride past their church;
I think if they had stones they would
cast them

My Scar

my scar
etiolate
but my vigor remains
I stand unbowed, unbeaten, and
alive

As a cancer survivor, I am very proud of my scars. The 10-inch scar along my neck is a badge of honor - of survival.
