sometimes forgets

Admitting
Today

I am a woman who wants to
only weigh 123 pounds and
sometimes thinks
that could be the answer

I am a woman who likes her
stomach flat and wants
to seem like it doesn't
matter all that much

I am a woman who wants
to make powerful
art of this world

I am a woman
who can feel so lonely
tat the most
unexpected
times

and sometimes
I can't ask directly
or tell you
How upset
I really feel
and I hope
I'll grow out
of it.

I am a woman who sometimes forgets about poetry and reading in the shade.

Sabrina Ward-Harrison - Messy Thrilling Life

This book is beautiful and messy and inspiring. I have checked three of her books out from the library in the past couple of weeks and they have been tempting me from my pillow on sleepless nights and I finally succumbed and opened the pages. How wonderful.

I need to make my life art, I need to be live effectively as an artist. I need to be satisfied by my creation.

Life has been crazy and messy and wonderful and I have lots going on. That is all.
