Lesbian Memoirs
Lesbian Memoirs is dedicated to the artistic lesbian. Lesbian Memoirs will be the chief online community that will encourage positivity, inspiration, growth, and community. The artistry of a woman in itself is emotionally and spiritually profound, because that is what we are. The thoughtful and philosophical insights in poetry, writing and all other art forms allow us to express pieces of ourselves that we have been taught to suppress. Creativity, eroticism, imagination, sexuality, passion, anger, disappointment, yearning, love, lust and dreams are all a part of each of us. Liberate yourself, free your mind, discover new realities and alter egos alike…come fantasize and create with us.
Let us keep you entertained, excited and intrigued.
Determined to art the world.

poetry is motion graceful
as a fawn
gentle as a teardrop
strong like the eye
finding peace in a crowded room
we poets tend to think
our words are golden
though emotion speaks too
loudly to be defined
by silence
sometimes after midnight or just before
the dawn
we sit typewriter in hand
pulling loneliness around us
forgetting our lovers or children
who are sleeping
ignoring the weary wariness
of our own logic
to compose a poem
no one understands it
it never says "love me" for poets are
beyond love
it never says "accept me" for poems seek not
acceptance but controversy
it only says "i am" and therefore
i concede that you are too
a poem is pure energy
horizontally contained
between the mind
of the poet and the ear of the reader
if it does not sing discard the ear
for poetry is song
if it does not delight discard
the heart for poetry is joy
if it does not inform then close
off the brain for it is dead
if it cannot heed the insistent message
that life is precious
which is all we poets
wrapped in our loneliness
are trying to say
