In a
few short hours,
I welcome the weekend,
but first I must live through a long
work day.

my time until
the work day begins with
deep breathing and some alone time,
peaceful.

of my niece when she was

weeks since I last
heard from you, power lines
severed by the hurricane's force.
Silence.

season changes,
the cricket's melody
echoes across the cooling sky,
singing.

to dreams, for they
keep you afloat after
the feeling of self doubt falls to
pieces.

The hate
continues to
spread across the country,
causing tragedy for many,
darkness.
