Beavers in a pond

One Eye Open

Inspiration piece

Ultimately we all grieve alone

The pain of seclusion

Historical lack

Nothing feels good

California’s on fire and

Losses just keep coming

I have accomplished nothing

Stuck in my head

A fox screams then yips to

Share its rabbit meal

Five minutes lasts forever when

You don’t want it to

If you don’t look forward

You stop hope

You don’t have to name it

It is what it is

One time I smiled and

Learned to take up space

They say if you can love

That’s all you need

Also you can quit
