I don’t care if you don’t want to hear this; overturning Roe v. Wade is an erosion of women’s rights and reinforces this absurd, backwards notion that women shouldn’t be allowed to be in control of their own bodies. If you DON’T think that’s absurd and backwards, fuck you.
Pen as my sword, Paper as my shield
I sit here.
Bloody are my words as my pen strikes the paper.
Sword and Shield.
I wave my sword at me, the only protection my shield, my paper.
As the words pour from my body so does the blood. Staining my sword, my shield, my skin.

It’s early, the sun is slowly starting it’s assent out above the trees.
An open clearing, with tall grass.
A river and nearby a beautiful flower patch full of tulips.
Was I waiting for someone? If someone does come they must bring peace with them.

Blank canvas
You picked up your brush with a brilliant blue.
And painted until I was royally (blue) soaked.
But you didn't stop even after I was no longer blank.
You had filled my life with color.
