A poem by Tricia Sankey















A tanka by ben Alexander of ‘The Skeptic’s Kaddish’









lying on the floor
finished, shattered by the fall
hands limp from fatigue
the fractured face of Venus
aligned with her Mars again

    Feel better soon. We virused from my daughter this winter break. ‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house not a person not coughing, not even the feverish mouse. Be well soon, friend. 💜

        Indeed. Or drunk and unable to feel any of it. 🤣 Okay, not the little ones. Anyways, here’s to rest. One book finished, and I’ve been avoiding any real responsibility for days. Life is truly good. I think we should all get the last few days of the year off, don’t you?

      Thanks! I was up in the night, half dreaming and fully sneezing, and I think it helped with the creative process! 🤩 Glad you didn’t think the eyes line was over-the-top too much, I have a tendency to walk that line, occasionally! 🥰💫

        Haha, creativity comes in the strangest ways sometimes!! Omg no, it was perfect and the detail was impeccably done. Walking that line is what makes your poetry so special 👌🏻🙌🏻🤗
