Slumbering Peaks | Finding Her Forte
https://findingherforte.wordpress.com/2015/07/22/slumbering-peaks
July 22, 2015. Posted by findingherforte in poetry. High above where the air is thin. The fir-backed giants slumber. Sleeping deep and dreaming big. Their earthly lives none remember. The trees sway and rocks tumble. The dreaming giants quake. For reasons lost, the mountains wake. Pulling up roots and bending their knees. Tree trunks crack against ancient bones. Much has changed since last it woke. Empires lost and new seeds sown. Shaken by sights of smoke and tar,. It sleeps to escape the age of war.

Assateague Ponies | A Stranger in a Strange Land
https://msbq.wordpress.com/2015/08/07/assateague-ponies
A Stranger in a Strange Land. August 7, 2015. A potent sun rises over the. Atlantic horizon, casting long. Shadows over the sand dunes. Of the serene barrier islands. Snuffled whispers and neighs. Can be heard from the harem. Even at this distance, it is clear:. These animals know no master. The matriarch, a tall pinto mare,. Flips her mane back and forth. In anticipation of the day’s work;. Crossing with foals is dangerous. With sea foam spray, they cross. The wetlands to Virginia, pushed. The Bird and ...

Twist of Fate | Finding Her Forte

March 20, 2015. Posted by findingherforte in poetry. He grabbed the necklace. And pulled down and away. But the clasp was too strong. So she bent at the waist,. At the strength of it. It dug into the skin around her neck. The chain of fate,. Of burden, and. She smiled at her feet. And took this moment to. Gather herself for his. His knuckles were white. As his grasp on the pendant. She gathered her will,. In the palms of her hands,. Glowing violet and pulsing. The pendant burned his hand. His eyes away,.

Where There’s Smoke… | A Stranger in a Strange Land
https://msbq.wordpress.com/2015/06/10/where-theres-smoke
A Stranger in a Strange Land. Where There’s Smoke…. June 10, 2015. What we are told. After our wicks are. Finally snuffed out is,. I sincerely believe,. All wrong, misguided. It is a deeply flawed. Machine that chews up. Men’s lives in service of. Hollow ideals and pure,. What have we to fear? The whips and barbs of. All too dull, the hellfire. Promised for (let’s be fair). Almost every one of us. Turned out to be a pale. Flickering furnace, barely. Capable of heating the. The ugly truth of it all. Follo...
