Take a Chance
If not, how will you ever know ...
Take a chance
be daring
brave enough to take a step off the shore of the familiar
of what you've ever really known
and into the sea of the unfamiliar
It might be strange like a foreign world
terrifying even!
If you don't break away and take that step,
how will you ever know?
Ever change?
Because what could be worse?
Taking that chance
That bold step only to realize
you were wrong
Rejection
Heartbreak
Realizing it wasn't for you
Or never truly knowing what could have been
A missed opportunity
regret
because you were afraid
because you never tried

Talking Hearts, Couples Edition
Write a poem that states its central concern directly without metaphor, indirection, or symbolic substitution. I bought a Talking Hearts couples edition box of 200 questions, with 100 playful and 100 thoughtful. I gave them to my husband for Christmas.

We Will Bury You
How do you deal with the vast disappointment and anger and rage and grief and rage and RAGE and RAGE and RAGE when a community icon, who did so much to help your gente, is found to be the type of monster that still makes me believe in capital punishment?

You're absolutely right. If you don't take a chance, you'll never know what's possible.
