You’re so close that I can smell your fear,
And feel your breath upon my ear;
Telling tales of hurt, long past,
Showing scars that’ll forever last.
And, even though I can touch your face,
Your broken soul lives another place.
I stretched my heart into your breach,
But your wounded love stays out of reach.
Synchronicity would be the word to best describe this past month.
It started when I posted a poem I’d written years ago – God & Goddess – on my twitter feed. Another poet who goes by the handle of @fuckingpoetry generously did an audio recording of that poem in his awesome, sexy Australian accent.
Seriously, go check out his mostly NSFW writings and audio recordings at fuckingpoetry.com. I recommend that you are seated when listening lest your knees get weak!
Then I stumbled on another writer with the twitter handle of @TheZeusJuice who has this whole shtick about being Zeus in the modern world. A bit of playful banter later and suddenly he, two dozen other amazing writers and I have a website AllInThePantheon.com where we are now blogging about the trials and tribulations of being Gods, Goddesses, and Muses trying to assimilate with humans by taking on day jobs.
So in the short span of a month, I’ve gone from your average sexy scribbler to a Goddess Blogger for the Pantheon.
You can check out my storyline by starting with my bio here: The Goddess Moxie.
Oh? You didn’t know that there was a Goddess named Moxie? Well, now you do! Following along as I spill the beans on the wild, weird, and wacky deities of Mount Olympus as the head of the Pantheon’s PR Firm. Here are a couple of updates to get you started:
If you enjoy my writings, I’d be honored if you’d buy me a coffee or became a patron! Thanks so much for your support!
In the silence…I heard every word you did not say.
You told me everything I needed to know about…us,
About who we are and how far we’d go.

NaNoWriMo: A time to once again exorcise my demons through writing. Or, should I spell it exercise? I like to give my demons a good workout.

Note:
In a little over two weeks, I’ll be diving back into some focused writing as I tackle the challenge of producing a first draft of a 50k word novel. I’m still debating which of the twisted ideas floating around in my head will take center stage. I’ll let you know when I figure that out.
