chill and spill
Posted by Sue Jacintho On January 28, 2021
I want… freedom, safety, peace, quiet, comfort, energy, health, to be understood, to matter, to love and be loved.
I need… stillness, understanding, solitude, quiet, rest, to think, to understand.
I fear… harm, exploitation.
I wish… a peaceful, comfortable, loving, energetic, healthy, fulfilling, and joyful life for my kids, for my family, for my self, for my friends, for my friends’ families, for everyone.
I hope… my kids are kind, genuine, considerate, healthy, and responsible. I hope they live a meaningful life. I hope they are safe and free and peaceful and joyful.
I expect… everything to be just fine.
I am… fine.
I love… life.
“Can you multitask?”
Yes, actually I am losing my mind and chilling at the same time.

The Way of Things
Posted by Sue Jacintho On January 26, 2021
It’s the way of things. We come into the world, we live for a time, we depart. As for the appearance, I don’t know how much choice is involved. From the river of souls, did I choose this vessel to inhabit? And for the living, how do I know how it is done? Purpose. What is expected? How do I do it? What are the rules of the game? How is it meant to be played? Meaning. What’s it all about? Why do we play this game?
I don’t know how anyone prepares for loss. Even when it’s not a surprise, it still sears and shatters. So I keep reminding myself that it’s the way of things. Acceptance. I’m working on acceptance. I think about purpose. And meaning. The cosmic goo of existence. Ashes to ashes and dust to dust. My mother and my other mother, dear birdies, both left us in January. Mom, a year ago, Meredith, now. I am so lucky to have so many mothers. Did I learn what they needed to teach me? Am I ready for life? Can I teach my children what they need to know?
I’m missing my mothers, these mothers who mothered so many. How many people are missing my mothers this day? So many of us! A veritable tribe. They’re not truly gone. They live on in me, in us, this broad and wide family they embraced for the time that they had breath.
My mothers taught me much. Not so much with words or directions, but in the ways they lived their own lives. Fierce. Proud. Protective. Stubborn. Steadfast. Unwavering. Compassionate. Tenacious. Defiant. Reliable. Resourceful. Cooperative. Helpful. Loving. Imaginative. Creative. Playful. Competitive. Sharp. Enduring. Inclusive. Nurturing. Strong. Mighty. Humble. Simple. Friendly.
I am so very rich for the life they shared with me.
Suffocation

Anger Therapy…
Suffocation
I stepped out of my own life
And met you in yours
I put my life on hold
To join you in yours
To love for a moment
To love for a day
To live for a moment
In a beautiful way
But you barely slowed down
You just took it in stride
You barely slowed down
Now the moment has died
I poured it out on you
The love that’s in my heart
But you’re too damned afraid
To open your own heart
You just don’t understand
That nothing was at stake
You could have made that moment
A sweet memory to take
You say your world is crazy
You think it’s some excuse
My world is just as crazy
And I don’t need a damned excuse
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
As though I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
A withered corpse
Twitching
On the ground
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
You think I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
Your withered corpse
Decaying
In the ground
As always I’m the fool
Cast my pearls before swine
Dare to love a blind-ass fool
Who can’t see love divine
Got to pick up the pieces
Got to wonder why
You see me as a black hole
A place for you to die
God knows it’s not the first time
I wish it were the last
I have to go on loving
And lock this in my past
Your thoughts dishonor me
We’ve got one life to live
You think I want it all
Or more than you can give
What you just don’t get
Is when you give it all
You don’t lose any thing
Not one thing at all
I said that all I wanted
Was a moment lived with love
I asked for just a moment
You dishonor me, my love
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
As though I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
A withered corpse
Twitching
On the ground
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
You think I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
Your withered corpse
Decaying
In the ground
I stepped out of my life
And met with you in yours
I put my life on hold
To join with you in yours
To share love for a moment
To share love for a day
To live life for a moment
In a light and beautiful way
But you barely slowed down for me
You took it all in stride
No, you barely slowed down for me
And now the moment’s died
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
As though I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
A withered corpse
Twitching
On the ground
Why do you see me
As a black hole
Suffocation!
Desolation!
You think I
Would take your soul
Consume you
Devour you
And leave you
Your withered corpse
Decaying
In the ground
