    Tread Lightly

    Reading the room reveals a clue It takes concentration to observeĀ  Ghosts of the past in the rearview Another deadman found his nerve Ā  Once inside it’s difficult to leave Too many loose ends unravel lies Can’t get dirty and remain naive Tactical spider still collecting flies Ā  Planting...

    • I think about the consequences of opening my mouth & weigh them against the burden of saying nothing. If it has the potential to hurt someone, I keep it locked in the Nope folder. There’s a lot of insight in this one. That cautionary note…think before you speak…is never out of date, my friend

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I always try to think before I speak. Sometimes that means biting my tongue, I like to choose the hills I’m willing to die on. Always enjoy your commentary. Appreciate you.

    • Learning to “read the room” is such a great line, and your last is filled with wisdom. We live and we learn as we go learning from our past mistakes and learning from others.

      Great poem.

    The Metamorphosis of Touch

    Doesn’t pledge come before promise,And promise before reward?And before these must come the hintThe touch before the word.***In the cool of the evening as the long shadows fallWe walk closer in the fading lightYour hand first touchesThen slips in...

    • Thank you. šŸ™‚

    • I like what I do, but it is quite maddening to spend so much time at work. And really with work it’s all you work and hope to have a good day and maybe it will or maybe it will be shitty. Just feels so repetitive after awhile. Some days I just want to run off screaming.

      Great ink
