Darkness You can not light a flame on candle wick worn down twisted into the wax You must gently release that strand from its prison lift it up support it give it spark Then it may glow once again giving back to the world light No longer lost in the dark This is how we find each other #Poetry #Art

Stress pinches my brain folding over my soul an origami of confusion creased & scored over & over I breathe for escape I dream for reprieve I scramble for any safety this pain & exhaustion leaves me empty crawling towards anything like hope it is somewhere I just can't find it in here #Art #Poetry

Still we stand... the wind bends the petals break the rain comes then it doesn't Still we stand... the bees visit a tattered center bruised colors pushing out seeds to the future Still we stand... Common flowers fragile strong faded but still standing... - #Poetry #Photography #Artists #flowers

Sunshine creeps in slowly covering up my late night shadows exhaustion settling beneath my eyes seeking relief in dark day shadows hiding the remembrance of when I was alive -- A bit of midnight nonsense. Improv poetry at it's best/worst. #Poetry #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #monochrome #Artist

Sisters... so much the same yet so different. Speaking without words Understanding Accepting Time does not hold us apart any more than space. It is not blood, It is love. - There is something so lovely about an Amaryllis bloom on a cold winter's day, two is even better. #Photography #Poetry #Art

I know Micah. He is an amazing young man! He is smart, brave & funny as hell. I've seen his comedic improv & stand-up. I've enjoyed his laughter, his joy & his kindness. Even disabled, he is more able than all these people with hate in their hearts. Give him love & support! #Disability #LGBTQ+

Clouds... in a bright blue sky they can be joyful... in my artful mind they are sun blocking drifting sweet depressed songs of... doubt. Passing over my confidence waiting to rain down on my pride... Spreading fleeting sweeping constantly moving shadows of... I'll never be good enough. #Poetry

If you are in the MN twin cities area... I strongly suggest going to see this amazing show! It sells out, so get your tickets in advance. It's truly wonderful theater!

What's up? I don't know... not me. Pain is a motivator... so I am told. I don't think it's true... survival is. Pain doesn't make you do great things... it stands in your way. Survival gets you up, out of bed... even when you shouldn't. So I'm up... pain and all. #disability #Artist #poetry

I will be who I am no matter what they say... I will make the world a better place no matter how they push... I will, in my quiet way, be the future... While they spoil the present... I will love the ones they hate... I am the one they hate yet, I am here still... Existence is resistance... #poetry

I don't share articles very often, but this is a good one. Discrimination, of any kind, in our current climate is unlikely to get better soon, but maybe a little education, awareness, can counter some really stupid, loud voices out there. We need to work together, all of us. #disability

When you feel tiny and alone... Remember, it's ok to be tiny... and you are never really alone... Inside every one of us... There is a universe filled with life... You are star dust in motion... I'm glad you are here! Please stay a little while... #poetry

Sometimes... when you feel down. Maybe a little tired... or tad exhausted. You should just play a little... Play with something that gives you joy... Don't try to "be productive"... Just play. Making art is my favorite ways to play. #Art #Artists #Disability #digitalart #digital #painting #mood

I try to stay awoke until I have no energy left then I break into pieces dust particles of the universe pain reminds me I still exist that existence is my rebellion the art I make proof of life everything else meaningless until touched by another traveler briefly acknowledging we are here together
