I purchased a beautiful typewriter on the weekend to assist me with my stream of consciousness poetry and this was my first attempt.
It was written for my friend Diana Yasmeen Schärer so it has that title.

Here she lies
Never more disguised
No longer an outsider
Now a star collider

Vale: Ursula Le Guin
Ursula Le Guin passed away the other day – Vale Ursula!
An inspiration to not only women writers but sci-fi writers with her take no BS attitude. Her words will be missed yet her legacy will live on:
Ursula Le Guin Passes Away at 88
Poem: Born Again
A supportive soul
Compassionate with good ear
Enduringly helpful and friendly
Supportive for the most part
Flexible yet not breakable
Approachable to the end

2018 Reading Challenge
Thought I would try a new yet interesting approach to this year’s reading challenge:
Popsugar Reading Challenge 2018
Poem: April Fool
Open heart and open mind
A cassim leaping into the unknown
Childlike expectations increase as you go
They think you foolish
Trusting in your fresh start
Pure newness on the increase
Things are on the upswing kid

Poem: Alternative Currency
Some say its better than love
Some say its better than money
Some say its worth much more
Than being lonely
It sells more than anything
It makes more than anything
Its valued much more
Than everything perishing
Is it kindness?
Is it trust?
Is it loyalty?
No…its simply lust.
