What The Spirit World Has To Say
All Rights Reserved © Selma Martin 2021 Folklore inspired by a grasshopper that landed on my head. A red-legged, pale grasshopper, her life’s purpose completed, came to say ‘sayonara’ to me, and I saw beauty in the encounter: how beautiful this cycle accepted with reverence. May we learn more from these fragile creatures whose offspring we'll see in the summer.

If Something Is Amiss Tomorrow, Find Me Here #poetry
Neither one thing nor the other, but something betwixt and between-- the “liminal” spaces that linger in places, situations, relationships and life. This poem is written for someone particular in my life. This person might never read this, but that's fine; let it exist in the liminal edges out there. Enjoy.

Take A New Chance, The Matrix Lies Within You
A Repost from April 2021. I present to you a Badger Hexastich syllabic poem that first appeared on Day 2 of NaPoWriMo. With this poem I attempt to shed insight on how I see Robert Frost's poem, The Road Not Taken.

Extra, Extra: Relax, Beam Up Your Team #ha’sonnet
Lucid dreams are dreams, after all-- with omens/signals to offer insight. But Life! Life is precious when it's lived fully awoken: in spirit and foresight. Un-dream to redeem your purpose and 'live' the dream.
