Dancer



I am energy

I am music

I am movement and electricity

I am the spark that inspired the question, 
                     the reason, the hunt and the answer.


I am spirit and flesh
... fire and ice
that which breathed life, faith and myth into the void 

Kali and Phoenix

… the ash and the promise

… intrinsic and ingrained
I am the beginning until I choose to end..


Melody, Movement and Muse 
… Prayer manifest... 

I am all things and nothing…


I am…

Forsaken (2013 re-write)


Always there and ever near 
that is the way things once were…
The first to tell, the first to ask, the first to share… 
the first and last… to laugh…
familial stories shared over troubles and joys
answers and understanding shared in search of 
answers and understanding;
now disturbing silences fills a void once full.

A once joyful ruckus beaten into submission
Muzzled… muted, sanitized and stilled
the link corroded...
and strangers are all that’s left
to issue uncomforting words of welcome and invitation
to a return to oblivion…solitude…exile.




Always there and ever near - that is the way things once were… The first to tell, the first to ask, the first to share… the first and last… to laugh.
Now disturbing silence fills a void once full.

The joyful ruckus beaten into submission
Muzzled… muted, sanitized and stilled
The link corrodes…
And strangers are all that’s left
to issue uncomforting words of welcome and invitation
to a return to oblivion and solitude.
