Gobblers by Masticadores publishes “Baseballs”

Dear Friends,

I’m thrilled to announce that my poem “Baseballs” is published today on Gobblers by Masticadores. A huge thank you to Editor, Manuela Timofte, for sharing my work on her highly regarded literary site.

Baseballs

One day the sun guides you
with its glorious rays,
the world spins
in its usual manner,
then out of thin air,
in the blink of an eye,
the cliché is yours,
under a sullen sky,
plans become fractured.

Life is altered
in a skipped heartbeat
that was slow to join
the rhythm of the others.
My emotions
feel awkward.
They seem wilder,
body feels heavy
as though pewter
crowds my veins…

“Burdens to Buoyancy” published on Gobblers & Masticadores!

Dear Family and Friends,

I’m thrilled to share that my poem “Burdens to Buoyancy” is published on Gobblers & Masticadores today! Thank you to Manuela Timofte for believing in my work and providing the opportunity to be a monthly contributor to her literary site. I am in the company of so many talented writers. Thanks again, Manuela!

Burdens to Buoyancy

Stones of burdens can seem like pebbles

barely tripping us up in our routines,

but sometimes, they’re boulder massive,

sliding us deeply into our heads

when the need to escape

from our own selves

becomes vital for our sanity.

We pause in our footsteps,

holding our breath, fighting tears

pushing as fiercely as a category five

The rest of the poem can be read here, and as always, a BIG THANKS to all of you for your wonderful support!
