Hopes for the blog:
offer up the wild intersectedness of lived experience and engage others in creative, expressive, perhaps irreverant, hopefully playful, and respectful encounters....
enact kindness
create moments of pause for disclosure, discovery, stillness

Winter Solstice


Longest night 
lands like an astronaut 
coming home to a familiar moon
after months & hours 
of longing
bearing gifts
of twilight
mist & stone
incense
ashes
smoke & bone
time to ponder
hope 
alone
time to wonder
time to howl
wait for stillness
darkness
dwell
