I’m interested in writing within the tensions of our humanity with the both and: our joy and our grief, beauty and brokenness, courage and fear, celebration and rage, and everything in between. 

My hope is that my writing has the ability to connect to what lies at the core of being human. Whether I am writing poetry, a newsletter, or an essay, my writing aims to be honest, attentive, and centered around connection. May these words housed here meet you and encourage you.

Relapsed Into Reality

Relapsed 

Into 

A reality 

Not yet known 

And 

Not yet seen 

 

Fatigued with familiarity 

Rendered 

Into 

Dependency 

Upon 

Community 

And the 

Daily bread 

Set out before me 

 

Led to 

         A deep 

         Awareness

         Of my limits 

         And 

         Need 

 

Released expectations 

         Upon 

         My body 

         And 

        My mind 

 

A shaking with grief 

And 

A dancing with faith

 

Led to 

        The hearing of 

        Healing laughter 

        Surrounding me 

 

The humbling 

Gift of 

Community carrying 

 

The hope of 

What awaits 

Beyond me 

Sustaining me 

Relapsed 

Into 

A reality 

Not yet fully known

And 

Not yet fully seen

 

Grace upon grace 

Meeting me

In my need
