Holly Parsons, International Poet
Soul of a Woman
A cerebral void
Calling in to redeem
A conscience on a holiday
Is exactly what we mean
From me and you to the glutinous fray
Dreaming together in charmed charade
Blowing bubbles of bullshit sticky and stark
Ruinous power a toxic hallmark
An analytical void
A heartless mirage
Disguised as a hero
Must avoid the mirror
For me and you will make it through
The ghosts of shame mislaid
To reap the fruit of greeds latitude
Confined in fermenting clay

A wise person once said, “What you do is not who you are.” They were talking about Holly Parsons. From diverse roots spring poetry, remarkable poetry. Powerful, insightful, wise, piercing metaphor infuses her work. Her expose`s cut to the core of issues with authentic clarity. This work expresses not only personal sensibilities, but is directed more fundamentally to inspire creation of paradigm shifting possibilities for her global family.
