Sarah Martens Poems

Falling was subtle and sweet.
Like plum purple coloured leaves in the fall,
letting go when they least expect,
Sifting and soaring in the soft cool breeze.
...

An essential kindness:
Thoughtless
Unprovoked
Without shame
...

We all gather at the step
One purpose in mind
Though many to follow
...

Consider:
your body
And my body
As one.
...

prodigal children of the world
sucking up resources
consuming them all
don’t you have a clue what’s coming
...

The sweet interlude
In and of this madness
Is nowhere to be found
But within the tiny cracks
...

Am I gone
Am I gone
have u been successful
in excavating every blissful memory
...

This is not a dream
Hopelessly searching
Through this…
We come to know
...
