I wrote this piece at the end of treatment last year. Though there's a lot of humor in the poem, it speaks to the many emotions that surfaced while watching people with wildly different politics than my own navigate illness and mortality in the chairs right beside me. Thank you for watching, everyone. *All identifying details in the poem have been altered to respect the privacy of fellow patien...

    I always refer to my super super adult dog as "my little heart with legs"...otherwise known as Bodhi aka Bodhi Eckhart Kimbriel (yes, he has a middle name), Bodhi-Doo, Doo, Monkey, Monks, Bodhi-licious (he's so delicious, he aint promiscuous), and chooch or chooch-a-reeno, chooch-a-roni (a San Francisco chooch). I pray a lot these days while I try to memorize his little face and how it feels to hold him in my arms, but I know it will never be enough. It's comforting to be reminded that I'm not alone in navigating a love like this. ❤

    Man, I wish I heard this earlier. For years I have seen the world as messed up and beyond repair. I have dabbled in drugs and shit, tried to do the unspeakable to myself. I was high af when I heard your poetry for the first time. Then I heard this after a massive panic attack. Thank you for helping me try to repair my messed up self that until today I thought was unrepairable. Tomorrow as soon as wake up I’ll say, “Hey look at yourself champ. You’re awake. How ‘bout you go see the real world that isn’t just grey skyscrapers.”

    Saviour I decided to name my alter ego Andrea for oh my gosh, she is my most favorite poet of all time. Andrea your poem that I know every word to called I do as well as the the every word of wasabi. Let me to a realisation that living is the most beautiful way of letting go of the hurt that keeps coming back. So the next time someone calls me psychotic I'm just going to say, it's my poet in me. And I will calmly whisper Andrea. Even though I would like to scream your name Infront of the Grand Canyon, and hear back Ana in return. P.S. thank you Andrea Gibson. ❤️

Though we’ve only met through my ears listening to your words, your words have helped me in times I wished I wouldn’t be here today, so me now thanks you for giving me then a reason to be here today. Wait why are all the lines my favorite lines 😂❤

    Not into stamp collecting, but am into recognizing that males that have gone through puperty have bigger lung and heart pumping capacity than their female peers. And do guide us Andrea how to tell a young skate boarder go study stamps...she who has spent her whole life training only to lose a podium place and sponsorship money to those with male bodies?

    OMG ANDREA … you read my mind and then made it poetry. From “try softer” which will be my intention for every day, to bring in heaven and refusing to call it heaven, and it isn’t heaven unless the person who treated me worst isn’t there. I just went through the worst friendship betrays, of my life so far (and I am 70) It was betrayal + gaslighting so it never happened or if it did I told her to, or I made it happen, or it happened but she made restitution or it never happened at all. And then, combined it with I believed somethung thst never happened, so she “lovingly” went to other people, concerned about my well being because I did break once before, after all. And then Loving Spirit showed me no w alike I am to her, how much I wanted to maim her spirit, and how near I need to be to Loving Spirit to be able to make her a video of gratitude for her gifts to me in friendship though I must say we are on a break for now. I did not know when I listened that the subject was grudge, and I am glad I didn’t, because I would have recoiled from the play button. You shoe me poetry is sacred and speaks while trying sifter. May you be … we’ll all of it, today.
