I’m a nobody, until
I’m just a cackling controller (sit straight, listen, stop talking) Until I stop to look into your eyes It’s the wonder in them which makes me a teacher I’m just a watching monitor (settle down, take your things, write neatly) Until I stop and pay attention to your work It’s the magic in your hands that make me a teacher I’m...

The Mime Learns to Speak
In a room stitched with silence, she stands—face painted, lips sealed— mirroring worlds with invisible walls, a language of gestures no one translates. Here, speech is a fragile rebellion. Her fingers sculpt stories midair, but the crowd wants laughter without edges, pantomime without questions. She remembers classrooms— words trapped in chalk dust, voices pressing her into corners too tight for dreams to unfold. But tonight, her throat...

Premium Member The Mentoring of Tumors
Lately, I've cut away hectares of tumors that engulfed confidence, happiness self-worth and wellbeing. With surgery a bit of the good stuff was sacrificed: A few shallow laughs, some adventure and mostly harmless mischief. The mirror is filled with scars of the heart excoriations of spirit along with other yet to be discovered damage. Though somewhat deformed, I like my new look. I feel...
