Mistaken Identity

IN SILENCE
SHE SAT
DRAPED IN VELVET
OF GREEN
BETWEEN EARTH
AND INFINITY
SHE REIGNED
EMERALDS, HER WAY WANDERED
AROUND
MILKY WAY
AND MERCURY MINED,
SUN PENDANT SHINED.
SUDDENLY, TORSO LAID BARE,
BREASTS SHARED,
GRABED SHE MARS
AND LIKE BOXCARS
HID AMONG MORNINGSTARS.
PEACE
WAS SHE THIS
GENIUS

My name is Leanne Howard Kenney. I am a former speechwriter and press secretary for former San Diego City Councilmember current San Diego County Supervisor, Ron Roberts. I am a former Sportswriter. A former political writer. A former public relations copy writer. A former newspaper reporter. A former . . . Apparently, I am a former writer. Well, that is not quite true. I have been writing poetry on my own for quite a while. And, I have been writing the odd article here and there for my own and my friends' pleasure for years. I started posting my poetry approximately a year ago. Where they came from, I know not. I am just glad they came. I hope you enjoy what I have to say.
