In 2010 I died and came back a mother. This is my journey through the horror and beauty that experience left behind as well as the everyday things that so nearly never happened. Mostly, it's me sitting down to write...amazed if I ever have the time and mind to do it.

Incantation
Tonight I want to be a witch, a shaman, a voodoo priestess or God. I have been writing incantations on my mind's tired, blank pages...Waters churn. Moon beam. Sun burn. Earth rise. Time turn....I want to howl in a clearing and sacrifice bureaucrats. I want to speak in tongues and rail at planets, rattle bones and spit blood. I want tsunamis, earthquakes, infernos and eclipses. I want an almighty crescendo so awesome that the word is never misused again and in its release...my son will sit up from his bed, walk to the bathroom and brush his own teeth.
