I’m so pleased to share that my novel releases today, bringing to fruition ten years of writing into the morning, agonizing over a single word for HOURS at a time, and never knowing a moment where this story wasn’t quietly shaping my thoughts. To everyone who supported me along the way, I’m grateful. I share with you my heart, in rectangular form and with the words “The Sand Diamond” written on it. 🙏💙🌊 US: amazon.com/dp/1509266674 UK: amazon.co.uk/dp/1509266674 Canada: amazon.ca/dp/1509266674

The big picture can be a panorama of ambiguity come closer and the clarity is in the crystal details every nuance every shade every crack every imperfection it that what frightens you to come closer to see that what you thought pristine in its enormity is no different than anyone else that thinking may not be symmetrical and one ear is slightly lower than the other or that a smile is barely crooked all no less sincere all so very real all the crystal details come closer that my imperfections no longer frighten you that how I see the world is only a different point of view and how I see you is not some prefabricated perception but an ever so small detour from everyone else that finds its way to you and your crystal details #loveletters @dearloveletters #crystaldetails

Dreamt of a hunger so sharp it nearly drowned me. Nothing left to eat. #vss365 #haiku

Just saw this review of my book on the Barnes & Noble site. 🙏🥹 #TheSandDiamond

@blackboughpoems #TopTweetTuesday special thanks to @MatthewMCSmith for this wonderful venue. Two poems: one for #Apathy, the other #Ennui as this is how I'm feeling in regards to the political climate right now.

Hey, fellow writers - I'm feeling nosy... When you're finally finished typing your manuscript, do you write THE END on the final page? #WritingCommunity #amwriting

Food and drink were plentiful, but never could I have enough. I ate my way through night and day, driven by my #hunger vast. Everything I found I ate, cared not if others starved, but could not fill my emptiness. Finally I devoured myself and hungered never more. #vss365

Most 🌻🍀 welcome 🙏🏼! It’s my ✨pleasure🪻🌿. I’ll be stepping away from X briefly to focus on ongoing health issues & address them properly. Hoping to return soon, sharing this #marvel with #vss365 community 🤍

Passion runs her engine like she could Like she could do anything Face anything Be anything & dream, oh how her little engine could dream & like a light Coming straight at her Like a hope That shines Yes, it shines In the darkness of no And watch her little engine go #vss365

Maybe she never figured it out Maybe she never figured anything out Living her life with her quiet passions An ocean contained on a beach in a land far, far away #vss365

I get tired of all fighting, pain and passion. Come, let us return to the beginning, when everything was Word and only the music of the waters filled the void. Come, lie beside me on a bed of sweet words, where silence tastes of summer and dreams rise like a rainbow after rain. #vss365 #passion #WritingCommunity

#vss365 #passion a labyrinth of molten veins It drapes soul in scarlet conspiracies A storm that engraves hieroglyphs on silence The chalice where shadows ferment into flame A mirror fractured into constellations of desire And the secret architect of eternity’s trembling pulse.

He embarks alone. That is all he knows. People are baggage. Baggage has weight. He empties his Velcro hands of whatever clings. Memories stay. They weigh nothing— hover under the breath, sink into his chest: wisp mush stone. #vss365 My photo: Independence Pass, CO

#vss365 Something strange is going on. Unknown sceneries. Unknown music. Memories dropped out of the frames. Too heavy to stay in the pictures hanging on the wall. Ready to #embark I'm waiting for the sunrise. No luggage wanted.

beyond the reach of her limbs above the line of her brow she slips the tree of flesh & enters the stories of the world the image still being made she leaves the marks of the everyday its fevers & harvests its bright hours & grief rising past what she knows as #passion gives hope the courage to follow #vss365 #poetry

#vss365 #passion so many signals hidden deep and yet they reveal the color of our monochrome skin black, white, grey as passion burns orange beneath, a flame we learn to dim protected from envious eyes. 🖤 #ωнιѕρєяѕ #FoxProse #Bionicanadia @FoxProse @bionicanadian

#Autumnal hymnal Songs of farewell written on the leaves entangled in the wind Seasonal transition teaches my #sanguine self a tough love lesson Each beginning has an ending Every meeting a parting What comes together must fall apart You must learn well stubborn heart #vss365

RT @revsodhi: Seduce me, then reduce me Charm me with your eyes, not with mere words, please me with your lips, tickle me with cold fingert…

I can sow with my eyes closed on my soil cultivating seeds I’ve saved by reflex I can water & fertilize from my table I #embark a parallax effect where to be well satiated skips that work Wisest waters flow frozen form leaving the warmth & comfort to foreign farms #vss365

RT @K_A_V_i_: #vss365 #passion @bionicanadian She found him in ambient lighting a glint held captive in her gaze His love, a vow unspoken…
