#NaPoWriMo: Day 29

I am clinging to
memories of
blue parakeets
lullaby-ing me
to sleep

#NaPoWriMo: Day 25

a verbal knife wound
twisting
every fiber of my being
until I’m
scrubbed raw

#NaPoWriMo: Day 24

…voice the scraping metal
sound of teeth
on a fork,…

#NaPoWriMo: Day 22

Odd half-smiles
and congratulations
are thrown about
like the farewell rice.

#NaPoWriMo: Day 21

A cherita.
