Duplicate - Poetry


 

Plural of everything

can exist, possibly in mental

notes and images. Was this

the result of our wishes becoming

fulfilled from a lack of desires?

We have become materialistic,

trying everything until there is

nothing left to duplicate. Surely,

textbooks will write of us one day.

Tea Review - Korean Green Wedding Tea (Osulloc)

Image
While attending the 2019 World Tea Expo in Las Vegas, I suddenly had a thought: to learn as much as I could about the Korean Tea Culture. Now, seeing as how I am a lover of world cultures, this  thought did not surprise me too much. However, I will freely admit that I knew next to nothing about Korean Tea Culture, except for what I learned through the World Tea Academy. Thankfully, I have several books on that subject! In starting my self education of all things Korean Tea, I recently tried the Blended Green Wedding Tea from Osulloc - Tea From Jeju since 1979 and WOW. I never knew I could actually taste a wedding in April. As soon as I opened the bag, I felt absolutely feminine. A woman, dressed in special clothing, ready to join her life with the man she loves. The scent of the blended green tea had me swooning and I was more than ready to brew it. First Slurp: The first taste of this tea was simply - delicate, lacy, feminine, flowery, grassy, and honeysuckle swe...

Lesson Learned - CONTRACT

Image
  It was a day like any other - I had taken a break from work to talk with my boyfriend at the time. I knew he'd been with friends after a job interview. He had plans to return to his home city after being away from it for over ten years. I wanted to hear his voice, and my anxiety wanted to make sure that we were still cool with each other. Imagine my surprise when not only did he say that he was no longer interested in me, but he was telling me, "since so many guys flirt with you, why don't you pursue one of them?" I had told him that I met many men (and women) at sci-fi conventions while selling my books, and of course, many guys flirted with me. However, I wasn't interested in any of them because I was happy with my relationship. I couldn't believe what he was telling me, and twenty minutes later, I returned to work with tears streaming down my face. Years later, I wish I could tell him THANK YOU for what he did. Yes, he was afraid to continue the relations...

Four Years - WARNING of lots of cussing in this post.

Image
Today marks my four year anniversary of moving to Colorado. For many years, I was riddled with doubts and anxiety, combined with a desire to people please, a desire to chase after people and things, and an allowance to be led around by the nose by people who honestly weren't good for me. The shift began in New Orleans, the city that I thought would become my forever home. Turns out I was wrong; it was the place where I would die. Not literally, of course, but metaphorically. I looked around and suddenly, I woke up. I realized that I had been living a lie just to appease others who didn't give two shits about me. I was running on empty and I seemed to like it. I did whatever others told me to do, mostly because I didn't have the balls to say FUCK NO. I told myself - that's enough - and then the true path began. Or rather, the new and improved part of my path began. I removed people from my life. I stopped bad habits. I asked myself - what do I really want? What do I rea...
