I wasn't sure what KINTSUGI was so I looked it up, actually I have heard of the concept but I did not know that was the word. A good analogy to use in your poem

In response to "She's Leaving Behind"

I actually did not guess she was going to another state to get an abortion, but now you have said that I get it!

In response to "Get Back! (For Jojo And Loretta)"

Thanks Bri!! The Jojo here is made up, but there's definitely a Loretta in my apartment building I used as partial inspiration.

In response to "She's Leaving Behind"

Thanks so much for the kind words, Jenny! Yeah, it's set in the American south, where states are trying to ban abortions and make it a crime to travel to another state to get one. This activity has been a lot of fun.

I love this Version of "She's leaving Home" - When I was a kid my Mum used to play the Sgt Pepper album and I loved this one, I like the way you have set it in America (Greyhound?) To make it a bit different. It tells a story and flows well. You have written some great poems for this competition!

In response to "So Tired"

Well, I know a herbal remedy or two...or some physical activity
that might do, might do.
Hugs and chin up.
We of the great order of wokeness will win in the end.
Just ait, around the bend,
even those Repubs bubs will see
throught the orange hate and glee

Table For Two

The photograph is simple:
a young couple,
early twenties perhaps,
sitting in a booth
at the diner of life.
Sharing more than just coffee;
sharing time,
space,
touch,
community.
The diner is long gone
but the sentiments withstand
and fifty years later,
you're gone as well.
You got your oats, Doris,
and you got all of me. A
long lifetime of togetherness
now lives in a picture
overlain atop what's left of me.
In finding your way home
I take comfort in
knowing soon enough
I'll be joining you
at our never-ending
table for you.
We're going home.
