I'm a multifaceted woman having a human experience.

I'm not interested in a relationship-I just got out of a 25 plus year one.

I raised a son-I cared for my sick mother-I was a good wife.

Now back to thinking of me-and this is where I tell people to fuck off so I can remember what this feels like.

I'm woman-hear me roar and all that. Let me experience life on my own-it's still brand new to me. I'm still adapting 'evolving' what have you---I'm still learning. I'm a student of life-a child of the universe.

Just let me be. How would you react to the love of your life walking out on you? Watching your mother die a slow death? A small tiny wonder (me) as strong as I might seem is just crawling out of her shell.

Let me cry on my kitchen floor-let me get drunk on Tuesday nights and write poetry on sunlit mornings while my dog sits by my side.  Allow me to be wild-sexy-carefree. Allow me to show my smarts, my lady-like demeanor or let me be clueless about responsibilities.

Just let me be. You be you and I'll be me.

Poem-i think

You say this never bothered you But this was that And that was surely part of this... Whatever this is. I see fingertips tapping merciless on the counter top And to great surprise they aren't mine. I wait as you wait And I cry as you try And try And he knocks on my bedroom door As dove eggs cracking painlessly upon the floor

Refried dreams

Refried Dreams He left me a cold plate of refried dreams He left me. His knuckles no longer crack in sudden dreary while I sleep. The shape of the moon is no longer the same And I melt at the sound of upside-down guitar strings. The dinner table holds candles and dust And there lies a plate of refried dreams Muddled and alone,  no longer bright My spice gets lost in the beans and rice of your life. EV

Writings

Don't buy me flowers, Just walk me through them Take me to them, to the quiet place To sit-n- dream and choke on gin Where our hands meet And you're missing again. Take me there So you'll feel safe Show me flowers Between our space. Gentle-sweet Like your nature Just like flowers And pain's creator Show me, Make me Whole A-gain ...missing again Drunk on gin High on me-in my hand In my head Eggs in bed Toast and jam- Morning juice Drunk on gin; In sunshine hour Minus him, Minus flowers.
