COMING SUNDAY, MARCH 22ND!
(6:00 pm EST)
Uma Hanaedai woke —
you were already
lying on my skin
a slit of light
between curtain and world
your soundless entrance
sun sister —
no words
just warmth between us
you find the way
without eyes
you know the place
where my body stops
being me
and yet i remain
you lay down beside me
like something
inevitable
i blossom
beneath your mouth
of light

Another great poem that has returned to my mind often since stumbling it for the first time. From the collection "The Hocus-Pocus of the Universe" by Laura Gilpin.
I actually did a full audiobook of this collection. If you want to listen, the link to that is at

January arrives pretending something was wiped clean—but the truth is quieter, heavier, and more honest than that.

Christmas has always felt like an ache to me.
Not joy. Not sorrow. Something in between.
A quiet melancholy that settles once the noise fades.
