sunday afternoon
drowsiness fell off a cliff
landing in a nap
terri guillemets
composed by yours truly
Come here
Don’t spend too much of your life avoiding the sharp edges of shattered dreams.
Life is dirty
You can’t get overwhelmed by the thought of all the weeds if there are flowers in your soul.
Lost & fined
Library fines are my favorite charitable donation.
Fees fines fo fun
If you haven’t owed a library fine at least once in your life, you’re not
Non-verbal
I’ve adjectived up my life so much I forgot how to be simple and plain
Paying the price
Wisdom is expensive — paid in life and years.
Demurrer
A smile is the best defense against this offensive world.
Man forbid
What’s in the raging flame
of banned books burning?
Knowledge, truth, learning;
courage, freedom, yearning.
Caution
Carelessness doesn’t bounce; it shatters.
Duet
Let your fear dance with courage — and let courage lead.
Agone
Love stabs at loss with pangs of past happiness.
Imperceptible
Under the giving snow blossoms a daring spring.
