“What’s your greatest struggle right now?”
“Fear of my writing. Sharing my writing, in particular.”
“Will you email me something you wrote tonight?”


“Less Fear” By Sade Johnson 

America take rest
I was born No poet
Born laces to television archaic computer lemming games
Walmart target home depot banks 

Big man take rest
I was born No lover
Born sage-less wise cracker
Abandoned lot mower for petrified native broken horn blowers

Savage take rest
I was born No tin man tight vested slave author
Born on No Puritanical pilgrimage not Lord wrought No Kings vestige 

Youth take rest
I was born a silver-tongued tight fisted counter daughter
Fire starting ageist hippy
Empty gun waving barbiturate sipping
Anti- nun

I take rest
I was born No fool

When it comes to exercising your inner genius, you must listen to your inner voice.

Crazy tubas during a homecoming parade.

At a pond in my neighborhood. I finally got the courage to grab my camera, tripod, and shutter remote to take pictures there. I did get weird looks from the construction workers right next to me, but I’m learning to just enjoy it as if no one is there.
