EACH DAY A NEW WORD / EACH DAY A NEW PIECE - ON HIATUS. It has been over five years of writing a daily poem and I needed a bit of a break. I'm not sure what the next step for this project will be. In the meantime, I am reviewing the poems written to compile into a new anthology. Thank you for joining me on this journey and enjoy the poetry.

exonerate
no higher court
no appeal
no pardon
no truth
no evidence
no witness
could exonerate me
in your eyes
I would always be
not her
and that was criminal
I cannot plea
innocence
only ignorance
accept
my punishment
of banishment
a refugee
avoiding extradition
in exile/asylum
I begin again
