The War Dragon. Content Warning.
Introduction This is an ekphrastic pantoum inspired by the image below that contains references to the First World War. In my poem, I weave observations on the painting with thoughts about that terrible conflict.

Crows at Dusk
flock of crows at dusk as I watch them flying home my heart feels happy As I see a flock of crows cawing and flying together to their night shelters, it feels good. They will be safe. They are in a tight-knit community. It gives a positive feeling.

We Don't Exist For You. Content Warning.
A while ago I collaborated on a poem in support of Athika Ahmed and women's voices everywhere. There was a call for any kind of writing, poems and verses mainly, inspired by the terms "They call us" and "We are". I knew I had many poems along those lines. I took several lines from different poems of my own and made a new one. There were many participants and a verse was taken from each, including one of mine. So, I'm sharing the poem I made from my own poems. Maybe you can guess which line they took from it.
