Resistance is Futile
I’ve been thinking a lot about resistance lately. What exactly is resistance? Well, in an electrical circuit (yeah, I’m going nerdy, but bear with me), resistance is a material that slows down the flow of the current.

My process
I suppose that I should write After all, it’s what I profess to be A writer But seasons pass without our meeting My feelings hide There’s a difference between prose and poetry I am vulnerable here Exposed There is no hiding behind a character No plots to distract Here, there is only me Raw and … Continue reading My process

Ocean
I adore this melody The swish and sway of your movement The calming sense of purpose Perseverance To return always Back and forth Gathering momentum As you approach the finish line I wonder where you’ve been And I imagine it should be everywhere For only gravity retains you And not even in all forms Giver … Continue reading Ocean

Vivirla
Entonces surgió una oportunidad innegable Algo diferente e interesante Música Los nervios se alimentan de posibilidades Las ideas corren Aunque yo solo quiero conversar Bailar... Escribir... Quiero ser plena y sin reparos Sin rompeolas Que me alimenten las neuronas Quizás no quiero nada Mejor no limitarme a las expectativas La única es la vida Vivirla... … Continue reading Vivirla

Villana (8/jul/2018)
Hoy me toca ser tu villana ¡Otra vez! Hoy me toca ser la autora de tus penas y lamentos La que te dijo que no Hoy me toca derrumbarte las ideas Apagar esa película que tú mismo dirigiste Hoy me toca ser fuego que quema sin piedad Fénix para que renazcas de mis cenizas y … Continue reading Villana (8/jul/2018)

Libertad (4/Jul/2018)
Libertad La conozco sin tenerla La tengo sin poseerla La llevo solo en el corazón en las esperanzas La vivo yo, pero no mi patria Es tan fuerte que asusta Pero todo lo que vale la pena asusta Para los cobardes no es No será No se inmuta ¡Atrévete! Copyrights @ 2018 Maricel Jiménez Peña

Entre versos
Ando revolcándome entre versos Saboreando papeles nuevos Regando la tinta y disfrutando del proceso Siempre han sido mis olas los versos El vaivén de mis sentimientos Fragmentos Ideas Pensamientos... ¡Qué rico! Los quiero. Copyrights @ 2018 Maricel Jiménez Peña

4 de la mañana Abro una Medalla Porque no puedo pensar en más nada Los vientos soplan rabiosos afuera Se escucha un ruido que espanta a cualquiera Pasan las horas y Juracán sigue Batiendo esta isla que de esperanza vive Derrumbes, peste y escasez Lo que dejó el día después A picar palos y abrir … Continue reading 2017-10-7 – María

Pixie Piper 3 is on its way!
Yesterday I finished the first draft of The Adventures of Pixie Piper 3: Dark Wish. I’m feeling pretty good! The writing flowed well with this one. I’d done an outline and followed it. Nothing too detailed, but with the most important events already included. I must admit, it helped a lot. Of course, I did … Continue reading Pixie Piper 3 is on its way!
