This image shows a person slumped forward over a desk, resting their head on folded arms in front of an open laptop. The person appears emotionally or physically exhausted—possibly overwhelmed, stressed, or burned out. The setting suggests a home or office workspace, with a small potted plant nearby and soft, natural light coming through the window in the background.

Just Keep Swimming (poem, video)

A vibrant abstract painting of a winding road or river flowing through a surreal landscape, filled with dynamic clouds of yellow, white, green, and gray. The scene is infused with glowing light, especially from the upper left where a golden hue suggests a sunrise or burst of inspiration. Geometric lines and rectangular forms intersect the natural flow, evoking a sense of both chaos and order — a metaphorical journey through creativity or life.

A Dream is Just a Dream (poem)

The image features a beautifully styled flat-lay photograph of a lattice-top pie sitting on a dark wooden surface. The pie has a golden-brown, perfectly baked crust with a crisscross lattice design on top, giving it a classic, homemade appearance. The lighting is soft and warm, highlighting the rich texture and color of the crust. To the right of the pie, there's a single green leaf—possibly basil or mint—adding a touch of freshness and color contrast. Just above that, a shiny red apple rests partially in frame, suggesting that the pie might be apple-based or at least inspired by traditional American fruit pies. The background and overall composition evoke a rustic, comforting, and nostalgic feel—perfectly aligning with the theme of the “American Dream Pie.”

$A burst of red, orange, and black radiates outward from the center like a violent explosion. Faint but noticeable elements of the American flag (stars, red and white stripes) form the backdrop, fractured by the blast. Words like “LATINO,” “TYPES,” and “PROVING” are scattered and crossed out or broken up by jagged lines, suggesting rejection, distortion, or confrontation. The color palette of fiery reds, deep blues, mustard yellows, and blacks conveys intensity, anger, urgency, and unrest.$
