Spilled Ink

My thoughts spill across the page

Ink scattered on paper

Staining what once was clean with inner demons and desires

I read the words back

Swallow them and let them digest

The taste is bitter on my tongue


Spilled Ink is a poetry collection with a variety of fictional horror themed, fairy tale themed, and some based on the viewpoints of characters I’ve written in my novels and short stories. It also includes poetry that is a window into my own thoughts and feelings—past, present, and everything in between. I guess it’s up to you to decide what’s me and what’s merely fiction. Either way, I hope you enjoy the words on these pages.
This book contains horror themed pieces with physical and sexual abuse.

In short: I'm Shari Cross. In not so short: I'm a daydreamer who puts those daydreams into books. I'm a 1st grade teacher and I'm married to my high school sweetheart. We have a smart, funny, beautiful, and loving baby girl; a kind of smart, affectionate, handsome, and goofy boxer pup; and a too smart for his own good, grouchy, adorable, and lazy miniature dachshund. I'm a Ravenclaw of House Stark from the Land of Enchantment who adores all things Fantasy.

Beautiful!

I especially loved the fairytale titled poems. Beautifully done! These are the kind of poems you come back to read again and again.
