A poem for 38.

From your local moody, water-eyed, Cancer sun/Leo moon poet who misses the ocean, listens to the cicadas, has a heart too big for her body, and will always stop everything to point out a butterfly or the moon. 🌙🦀🦋🤍

First spooky season read (from August): "The Invocations" by Krystal Sutherland. 10-word snapshot:

Queer. Witchcraft. Curses. Helpful(?) demons. Murder. Girl power. Necromancy. Ancestral lineage.

Highly recommend as a witchy read this fall 🔮

A fave love poem of mine from my book 'Poems of August.' Inspired by watching the early (aka better) seasons of 'Alone' with Carlos. 💛

Learning about the polyvagal theory via my therapist is wild. I feel like my dorsal vagal system has been in charge FOR YEARS. I also learned that I can give myself choices. Who knew?!
