The joy of baking
Was never in the kitchen
It's in the shopping

I was beautiful
The mirror has forgotten
But I never will

Cursed with healing touch
Watching my loved ones flourish
While cancer eats me

For two nights, I've dreamt
A llama in a goose flock
Does it mean something?

Fog settles on me
Hazy malaise of burnout
A fatigue I can't shake

Belly up, old friend
Pour out your trials and triumphs
I'll pour a cold one

It's simple pleasures
Dinner, drinks, a game with friends
That bring joy to life

Lonely drunk is bad
But doesn't approach when you
Eat raclette alone

"I'm leaving," she says
It's been over for months now
But today she leaves

Majestic sweeping
Towering over hilltops
Draw power from wind

Fences make neighbors
They say, but I feel bridges
Will make neighbors too

Flowers laid roadside
Vigilante signs saying
"Danger! Dear lives lost"

Plastic stars glowing
Ceiling's fixed constellations
Guide me to dreamland

Repeating the words
I heard not understanding
To those down the line

Note: Sarajevo
While a great song of it's own
Ranks distant second

Fact: O Holy Night
Goes hardest of all carols
Absolute banger

What magical days
Lounging between holidays
Put the world on pause

Unexpected knock
More family pours inside
Tracking in more joy

I gotta pee, bad.
Drive too fast, bouncing bursts me
Too slow, time runs out

Beautiful wrapping
Effort for a second's not
Christmas mandalas
