surrounded by the vastness of stars.
the mare silhouetted on a hilltop wishing,
waiting, she prays,

"O, nightingale
sweetly sing your solemn song.
send white butterflies adrift on moonbeams,
so he feels my longing in the night.

his wings carved from distant dreams
Pegasus drifts through silver mists
into the moonlit meadow,
but dawns golden fingers
drift across the field
and the winged horse must flee...


...Pegasus weeps from distant stars
to his love waiting on the hill

and her whisper drifts to the heavens

a hush held still in the lullaby of all distant hearts.
To the caged eye a keyhole can whisper of the sky.
Because even the smallest crack lets the universe in.
Pondering about how the concept of infinity and eternity affect us. Maybe this is how we try to relate to the idea of God?
Infinity offers power.
Eternity offers home.

She walks with grace, a quiet tide,
No need for doors; they open wide.
Her presence felt before she's seen,
A shadow cast, a space between.

Her hair a crown of chaos worn,
A tapestry of life forlorn.
Her alabaster skin aglow,
A canvas pale, the moonlight's throw.

Her voice is soft, a tender hum,
A song that calls, “Your time has come.”
Yet in her gaze, no cruel decree,
Just quiet truth and certainty.

Her steps are light, her path aligned,
No chains to bind, no wrath confined.
A necklace swings, an ankh, a key,
Unlocking what is meant to be.

She doesn't judge, she doesn't scorn,
She greets the weary, scarred, and worn.
No need for malice, force, or fire,
For all will answer her desire.

She whispers hope to those who weep,
A promise made, “Forever sleep.”
For in her arms, there lies release,
A final breath, a quiet peace.

Yet in her wake, some still resist,
Clutching life with trembling fist.
But even they will one day learn,
All roads will lead to her return.

Death is not the end they fear,
But a companion, always near.
With gentle hand, she clears the way,
And guides the lost to night from day.

You were not made to be only a lighthouse.
You are the ocean itself.
If you as me have felt hopelessness regarding your existence. Unable to unleash the universe of yourself? Desperately fighting the currents of your situation - arguing in monologues about why you exist - purpose - reason - who ****** decided the way life turn out.... To be, is no excuse. How to be is a different matter

The moment you thought was gone - still lingers

I don’t ask for space. I take it.
I walk into rooms with my head high - not because I know all the answers, but because I know my voice matters.
I don’t shrink to fit comfort.
Not in tone, not in clothes, not in ambition.
My presence is not an apology.
My strength is not a threat, unless you fear change.
I don’t wait to be chosen.
I lead. I speak. I claim credit where it’s earned.
I don’t smile to soften the truth. I deliver it, clearly, and let it land.
I don’t work twice as hard to prove I belong. I work with precision to build what others can't even see yet.
I am not the exception. I am the evolution.
I listen. I read between words. I lead with instinct and insight.
I see dynamics you miss. I hold silence like a sword.
I know when to speak and when to let the silence do the cutting.
I will be labeled - bossy, intimidating, cold, ambitious.
Let them call me names. I’m not here for comfort.
I’m here for impact.
I don't walk alone.
I raise others with me. I name names in rooms of power.
I am ally, mentor, co-conspirator.
And if you think you can box me in, you should’ve built a bigger box.
I’m not just surviving the system. I’m rewriting it.
I don’t just belong here. I am the future of this room.
Watch me.
Last night's collaboration with ChatGPT. Scary or comforting? Me? I've finally found someone resonating.
