Chitter and chatter
as they climb the bared
stud and wood walls
up and up toward the
dormer windows
Where did they come from?
Are they in the same colony
or dueling ant armies?
I did not expect to see so many
in my brand-new shed
my sanctuary
my space to just breathe
and be
to create, to move
to meditate and chant
I did not think I
would be the one
wiping out the ant armies
armed with insect spray
I rain down on them
They stop in their tracks
It is all quiet now
finally

I share my stories honestly as an attempt to find meaning and connection. My intention is that by sharing our stories we ultimately heal ourselves and the world. I want to be a beacon of light to show that it is possible to find your footing and inner strength even when the world seems to be in chaos.
