So […]

A CHILDREN’S PARADISE LOST (By Joseph Cavera) As I sit here This ground shifts Falling further Into roaring rifts The wind scatters As your toes touch the ground, Nothing else matters While you land without a sound Now enter this realm where lights galore Flash!

A stiff razor-edged blade slices – By Gil Hoy through pulsating flesh, as the hot orange sun glistens on freshly red-tainted steel.

Heart of the City – By Matthew Anish In a thousand city rooms lovers caress each other On the streets auto lights are reflected in pools of rainwater Trucks hurtle by bringing needed goods to merchants Policemen survey the city scene with wary eyes A young girl walks down a crowded avenue She […]
Read morePoem: How Leaving Home Works (By John Grey)
HOW LEAVING HOME WORKS I need highways, infrastructure that can differentiate between the town where I grew up and the place I need to be.
