“A horrible, terrible, no good, lousy…” he whispered in her ear with every step she took.
His words weighed her down and her step slowed until it fell into rhythm with his cadence.

I am not going to let you ruin my day
Today –
I will not let you take away my peace.
I will not let you take away my faith.
I will not let you take away my happiness.
Notice
Today she gave
her two weeks’ notice, notice.
She’s going to show us, show us
that she’s made of

looking into a mirror through a window
what friends do
The Photo
We have been asked
to love one another,
treat each person
as our sister or our brother.
What Matters
I thought it mattered
so I hung on tight.
I thought it mattered
so I gave a good fight.
