What Crosses My Mind

  • The Crucible – Lesson Learned in Rehearsal (1997)

    She was playing the role of Abigail in The Crucible. Her impact on the character was just beginning. There is an intense scene between her and John Proctor, and she was having a little trouble reaching the inner turmoil of the character. I took her aside one day and asked if she ever raised her…

  • Abundant Love

    If a  heart and soul feel aligned, then kindness could exist in our lives. If in those moments of fear and wrath, we need believe, a smile can be free. A lifetime lays upon anyone’s dream, and it’s there to create beauty alone. When next we might question worth, stay true, heart and soul will…

  • Frozen State of Mind

    When everything we ask seems so much effort, looking for any spark of engagement in our lives. We can find ourselves running in place, always hopeful, always wishing for a new end.

  • On Breathing

    In a panic realizing a vulnerability. I can’t breathe, my anxiety is alive. It was a quiet night minutes ago. My whole word could crash, or I might breathe.

  • Words

I can no longer remember why, But for now I just need someone To believe my current complaint. Our society relies upon truths, But there is so much nonsense, It’s nearly impossible to believe.…

  • Vacant Eyes

    Like all the way across the room, vision every side glance is fierce. Well past anyone’s curiosity. A hierarchal metaphor living Within my own gentle mystique. I want to know, you know just how far do we need to land, and the idea reminds me of us to sanctify that earlier report. Stepping in a…
