Lauren M. Hancock Poetry and Prose
Where I can feel at home…
I am currently away without leave, taken steps to walk from progress so I can be there, to care for the ones I used to revolt from, those who love me with every inch no matter past sadness, but pray tell I do digress, I need to be here, not unavailable, but present, my presence used to be far, far less.

Vivid waves heave then capitulate, hooves upon sand, gallant galloping, sun-drenched love; subtle stuttering, nervous selection, calm, controlling. [...]
Green shoots press their way through compact heavy weight of rain-drenched soil, I watch them rise, peek through the surface, surprise! their ends seem to call, reach toward that sun drenching them, a morning of rich rays warming them, [...]
