an uncrushed flowerburst into constellations of dancelove can be a monster, or not
She wanted to dance
zig-zag patterns
of the constellations.
Longed to spread
her wings like petals
of peonies opening
in a sunburst.

the lurking monster
behind her.

I am a freelance poet, born and bred in Brooklyn, New York. I live with my husband, John, and two charming rescue dogs–Marion Miller and Murphy. We spent eight lovely years in Portland, OR, but are now back in New York.
My goal is to create and share poetry with others
who write, or simply enjoy reading poetry. I hope to touch a nerve
in you, and feel your sparks as well.
Taotalk is a forum for the discussion of both the academic and pragmatic aspects of dao and Daoism, with participants expressing themselves on Daoist writings and pragmatics from their unique perspectives. It serves as a community for Daoists, and those interested in Daoism, to gather and talk dao.
Ooh, a sudden ominous twist after all that joyousness. Nicely done.
