Body Count
Friday 11th of April 2025
An account:
Do I have a
body count?
Of course!
I have a
HUGE
body count!
The exact amount?
Oh, why, only
ninety-nine
and count-
ing!
Wait. What?
No such thing!
I would never
sleep
with ninety-nine
people!
Why,
it is quite foul!
Beside,
my crimson petals
remain furled,
every tepal.
Oh. Splat.
I did not know
body count could refer
to that.
What did I mean?
Haha.
Do not worry.
You shall see,
my hundredth.

It ambles at night.
Ghostly, lanky legs—no face.
Just a chill cryptid.

A Mischievous Maid
Friday 11th of April 2025
There once was a mischievous maid,
who whisked her lord's fortune away.
But a dragon came 'round
and gulped it all down,
for which the maid dearly paid.
Algorithmic Longing
Tuesday 4th of March 2025
We match so well on paper, the algorithm told me so. You keep popping in my window so that I can follow and be known.
You keep asking for connection, for a partner in this world,
But you keep asking for support while scrolling past my post.
How is it that we can want the same things? Be ignited by the same passions but keep missing each other's “follow” action?
Am I not as good as others? Or is the next one just a little better?
I completely understand because I too am waiting for something greater.

Once a Soul Asked an Angel:
Sunday 3rd of November 2024
Once a soul asked an angel:
- Why should I go to Earth?
I am afraid of all the dangers,
Waiting for me after birth.
The angel answered with a warm voice:
- No reason for your fear,
Cause everytime you take a choice,
l will be always near.
- But how could I know you if
You change your face with other?
- For your ease and relief
You should call me: “Mother”.
Jesus
Wednesday 30th of October 2024
A rhyming sonnet about Jesus Christ by Geoffrey Waugh.
Sin stalks the soul, and permeates the whole
Of life lived here where we, while bound by fear,
Hunt far and near for freedom to appear
From pole to pole with our minds in control.
That worthy goal seems mockery. Sin stole
Our freedom dear, left pain and woe to sear
Each life, a mere heartache, or sob, or tear,
Like a lost mole, blind, dirty in its hole.
God’s love stepped in to fight and conquer sin
Through Christ who bled and died and rose as Head
Supreme of all who claim Him Lord. Our fall,
Clamour and din may end in Him. We win
Release from dread, freedom, life from the dead,
Unbound from gall, in answer to His call.
softly screams,
