Is he an asset or a liability?

I have a man but does he have me? I don't know because he stays in the street more than he stays with me. So I ask myself. Is he an asset or a liability? I clean his house, cook his meals, take care of the kids and pay all the bills. I even give him his cheap thrills. So what does he do for me? Nothing I can see. So I ask myself. Is he an asset or a liability? All I ever wanted was a man with a dream. Someone I could call my king. With ambition and drive. motivation and determination by h… Continue

Excerpt: Karma Has a Name

A rapping at the door startled her and she spun around. He looked at his watch and shook his head. “Karma, relax for a second. Alright?” Karma jumped from her seat and threw her napkin on the table. “What? Who the hell is that?” “Leah. Look, just…” Preston looked at Karma and then at the closet. Karma shook her head and walked away from in front of the closet. “Preston, I am not about to hide in there. You got me messed up.” He pulled her arm and dragged her to the closet. He pushed on the coats… Continue

Loves Trellis -BAS Poetry Submission

Loves Trellis Sleepwalking since spring Being in love is such a fragile state A timid daredevil Filling the empty with anticipation Of approaching joy Butterfly flutter by Love is the principal passenger Casting spells Upon the heart Kissing the tears of lonely Erasing the absence that came before The echoes of a thousand fears Fall on silent ears Love lives simply Though the rainbows arch Painting the rising sun Brightened eyes escort glowing smiles Slow dancing with sunrays Lingering ja… Continue

What IS Important in Relationships?

What I have come to realize after being divorced for many years is my ex-husband and I did not share the same core beliefs. For him, the ideal marriage was keeping a wife "barefoot and pregnant", to use an old phrase. During our relationship before we got married, this deeply embedded conviction, passed down from generations of men in his family, never surfaced. We both way too young to even think about getting married --at least I was, and perhaps that blinded me from recognizing the signs of h… Continue
