I am a 39 year old married mother of three. I have lived with mental illness my entire adult life. It inspires much of my writing. All poetry submitted was written by me and is copyrighted.
Restless, blue-green water
Curling into angry fists
Groping the rocks
Yet coming up empty.
...
Marital Madness
If you will
Who turned up the heat?
Have you seen the bill?
...
Starting over with blank canvas
Where to go from here
I am lacking inspiration
All my visions are unclear
...
In between a couple of old forked trees
Is nestled a nailed together pine stand
Where a man dressed in camo and neon
Patiently waits with his rifle in hand
