Here is a small sample of my poetry! You can find much, much more on my instagram @lettersaligned or by purchasing a copy of my love poetry zine (available in my shop!)
Belly Button
Our first loss was a bridge.
If by some blessing we make it
through, it is our first wound
– a scar we all share
to show where we’ve been,
in common. Things
adrift. Things ruthless
to recreate a path.
The Refrigerator
We all understand the refrigerator
as our first podium — judged by parents,
magnets like medals. But forever
I think that’s all we want —
to make something good enough.
Elul
Ready or not, here she comes,
the new month – the longer nights.
Elul arrives on the fumes of summer
like the last flicker of a cigar.
Then the exhale and then
the big moment of looking
as if in a rearview mirror
at yourself in the backseat.
