The funny thing about pain is..

Butterfly’s Side by Janielle Beh

At the beginning of this month I was honored to have one of my newest poems, “transfiguration” featured in a wonderful digital poetry mag called Words Dance, curated by a poet – and human being – I greatly admire! Amanda also runs Kind Over Matter which is one of my favorite websites, so thanks SO MUCH to her for including me!

the flowers can grow out
from inside of you;
anything beautiful that
could have a chance to be
is getting tangled in stitches
and scars.

We’re in the process of submitting the film to festivals around the globe, and the $$ goes directly to that. Check it out!
