What is seen 

 

So your mind fills in the gaps

gives corporeality to the phantom

even as the scalpel ni...

Embers

I want to tell you how incredibly

imaginative, creative, talented

I think you are with your poetry,

writing, music, art...

but I hesitate to expose our

eggshell-covered egos, 

fuel rejection, 

ignite impostor syndrome...

all live wires 

that threaten to electrocute

our fragile muse

comfort-zone life. 

So, instead of shouting
