My Womanifesto

Bliss Ripple is a catalog of clues— fieldnotes for living into one’s internal bliss. Compiled through the creative works of poet, artist, musician, and mama Maggie A. Bishop, Bliss Ripple explores the idea of resounding joy— how to create it and expand it through living with passionate honesty.

Here you will find poems, songs, and observations written under the influence of inspiration Maggie finds scuttling and searching amidst the varied Missouri landscape with her wonder-son, adventurer Arlo, and her artist-partner and dream confidant Josh (who is also a photographer and music promoter).

elephants and birds; belly dancing.
moving to the music and story telling.
moving onward upward,
facing fears.
learning about doubt and sadness.
dreams.
lucid dreams.
stop hiding. get in-tune.
intuition.
being myself.
dreadlocks, winding tighter and tighter.
wisdom.
a network of wisdom.
learning learning learning
shedding skin
lots of hot hot hot showers.
cleansing.
sleep,
rest.
hiding hiding hiding
cradle lovingly the soft spots.
be brave.
bold.
myself.
rolling around on the floor taking photographs.
learning to smile at people.
learning to talk.
being an artist; being observant.
writing a history;
writing it all down.
drawing it all out.
stories.
folk artists.
music.
dance.
the underground.
permission.
hope.
letting go.
the crux move.
letting go to move.
getting unstuck.
following the path.
