Featured in the Fontana Herald News!

When I joined the Sequoia Middle School College and Career Fair, it was a complete honor to come back to visit my old middle school, and share my memories and experiences with my husband and CPITS partner, Juan Cardenas. It was also amazing to join the kids and light the creative sparks in their eyes! Plus, the literal honor and prestige that I felt, entering a room that said "POETS" Jessica Wilson and Juan Cardenas... that was to be our home room, was phenomenal! I don't think I ever felt so amazing as a Poet! It was such a beautiful day...

Now, I see that the local newspaper, the Fontana Herald News, wrote a story on Career day...and the first letter of the story starts with J!
:)

You will see why... I am soooooooo happy to pay if forward and immerse into my old school and city, to share the joys of creativity and poetic expression!

When everyone was quarantined, I felt like

  "When everyone was quarantined, I felt like..."           I was caged,  my cord cut,            the outside was in,       and I  wasn’t ready for that. I felt like I was out of time                 – no way to re-plan my life,  no way to be by anyone’s side. I like mapping the scene,     feel heat amongst a crowd,  and now, to stay away from them,  I have to hide. Close myself off  my nature,  to enjoy parties  dancing, all the things               feel more alive…  When that door shut, a hurricane hit. JMWC 9/22/20 from class, Panorama High School, 2020

my brain is completely flooded i've rode this train before to a journey laden in cumbersome foot-stomps catching my frolic to the ground, tumbling over some man's arms, thick-legged brawn there is a part of me that says, 'you're too old for this'... maybe to know better is to be declarative and surrender to the certainties in life. however certain and present, the tornado will  follow. it's better to live submissive instead of dismissive to the velocity of life held out in front of you... like the last banana in the fruit bowl, or that chocolate cake you just want to lick. bowl to casket. each motion a delight.

In Honor of Mother Earth

Happy Earth Month!  Right now, we see the blossoms opening, the vines ripening -- the sweet smell of Spring is here! Congratulations to everyone for making it out of the darkness, in this frigid air... the dew of the damp Earth has sprouted many blessings.  Rake up the gentle soil and bring her into your circle. Let the abundance flow into your circle; enjoy the fragrance of your harvest. I wanted to offer up this powerful song; Madre Tierra , by Maya Jupiter. Her message is steady and daring to be spoken into the ears of all who dwell on and know Mother Earth.  Speak righteously, and take care. ~ Jessica ~
