A sneeze

 sometimes i forget i am an individual

myself

a person of thought mind... this dormant stone that i once recognized as a levvy to my voice.


well, i found myself back here; and it's always joyful when i am.

thinking of the Chief --- Michael Rothenberg -- may you forever rest in power. 

time is so fleeting... i can't believe he is not breathing anymore. 

it really makes your heart hit the floor.

i am saddened for Terri -- the missus -- the visionary. Ometeotl


i think of all this time and all these weeks that smooth into the other...

just an hum on the old loin cloth

life covering the bounty of the more knowing.

what of an unblessed discovery? is it equal to a random squished realization that is discovery, swiftly in 10 seconds?


a quick blessing, like a sneeze.

it flies, you blink, goodbye.




(that was the exact moment).

I'm heading to the Moon!

     Since I was a little girl, I was in love with wind, the land, and the proximity of the moon.

I sought the eyes of her face; along with their color, and holding smile. She traced me along the footprint I patted down; little girl beating brown; a tiny hand of mud.

Tangled in more Grapevines

Ways You Can Support 💜 Dear Friends, As I navigate some meaningful transitions this season, I’m reaching out with gratitude and humility. If you feel called to support, here are a few ways your kindness could truly help me and my little family right now: Help us get to León (August 14–21) so the kids and I can spend our birthday week together with loved ones. Contribute to our August rent — a little breathing room would mean a lot. Share resources or curriculum for advanced elementary studies — I’m homeschooling! Help me enroll in an advanced Spanish class. Support with vehicle tag renewal costs. Haircuts for the kiddos. New clothing for the little ones — they grow so fast! Help organizing and decluttering at home. Let me know if your address can be a reliable business address for LAPS correspondence. Let me know if you have a safe space to store a few treasured keepsakes from the kids’ (and my) childhood. Help us host a community birthday c...

Review of Chemorella by Ken Phillips and Katy Franco

Chemorella , Ken Phillips and Katy Franco’s color-bound, 57 page bilingual journey catapults readers into the world of cancer and the afterward. This story captures the rawness of emotional evolution of someone diagnosed with cancer. In these pages we witness the first injections of devastation, denial, fear, and finally the climax of letting go and choosing life over grief or giving up to the disease.  Phillips and Franco address the severity of cancer in a way that is expressive and humorous; and also written in a way that is always accessible to the reader by means of adopting the Cinderella Fairy Tale to Franco’s testimony. Like Cinderella, Chemorella is a lovely and beautiful woman with a lot of good spirit to share. However, Chemorella becomes stricken with a tragedy that many people don’t come back from, that is far more serious than anything Cinderella had faced. Though with nudges of negativity from her three “famously awful roommates,” and guidance from her super ...
