When We Stumble Over the Lines
by Beverly "Bree" Brown

​Let yourself be loved over the line even if that line is

                     tiny

​                     tiny

                                       it’s ok

        And though our bones have already found their lines

        We are always playing in the sounds and earth of our own growing

                   of our breath

and thoughts

                  our hurts

  our joys

all the open questions

                          They are always with us

              Till death do us part      with us

Can we allow them in?

Can we allow ourselves to reach for each line that shows itself?

That puts itself in front of us each day in each moment.

             All In

All in

​​Bree Brown completed a BA and MA in Creative Writing at SFSU. She has expressed herself through poetry since she was a young girl. Her favorite quote is, “The universe is made of stories, not of atoms.” (Muriel Rukeyser) Bree was born with words engraved on both hands and has loved words for as long as she can remember. And she remembers Grandma Rudin buying her first book of poems when she was 8. She believes poetry lives inside us all—it will connect us to the deepest parts of ourselves if we let it.
