At times, old insecurities come to the fore, hand in hand with wistful memories of past lovers, loss, death and grief. At other times, I have bitter quarrels with God late into the night about sin, redemption and child-death; and when solace will not come, in despair, I run for shelter to life's true confessional—poetry.
I also post my poetry on:

The poet with unbridled thoughts
and the scent of fledgling sparrows
on her lips
rides bareback to the river
...
For many years now I live alone
in a tiny single room by the canal.
I have no photographs on the walls
there are no books on the shelves
...
Rise to the dizzy heights
dream the dreams
and think the thoughts
that you and only you
...
