SIX DECADES. SIX STORIES WE HAVEN’T HEARD YET.

09/13/2026

to love life, to love it even
when you have no stomach for it
and everything you’ve held dear
crumbles like burnt paper in your hands,
your throat filled with the silt of it.
When grief sits with you, its tropical heat
thickening the air, heavy as water
more fit for gills than lungs;
when grief weights you down like your own flesh
only more of it, an obesity of grief,
you think, How can a body withstand this?
Then you hold life like a face
between your palms, a plain face,
no charming smile, no violet eyes,
and you say, yes, I will take you
I will love you, again.

Women share pain like a potluck dinner.
We come together, each carrying a steaming dish, unafraid to lift the lid: and say:
dig in
how do i make it better?
let me know what you think?

Its a necessary magic this gathering
the ache and making it into a meal.
