- Poetry > Free Verse
Let's replace the common people with the figure of a candle. Each person truly his own work of wax, disfigured and perfected by one's facts. Let's replace the common mood now together we will brood over something infectious like Anger when one is lit, so is another. Oh, ... - Fiction > Fan FictionWords that we read tumble in a chain, down our throats and out our ears They circle us like hungry vultures in the sky and ask us silly questions like when and why. Our actions become instincts Our minds go numb We sit and stare at the flames, but have only ourselves to blame. The black moth...
- Poetry > Free VerseFists clenched into balls, I slam my body against walls Punching anything in sight. I tighten my jaws, As I think of my flaws Cursing for never doing what's right.

- Poetry > Free VerseOne hushed splash and I crash into the tenebrous waves below. Something delicate cushions my fall With eyes unopened, my hand reaches out and touches a wall. A silky voice reverberates against the water like chiming bells singing a quiet lullaby, a tune of lost loves and forgotten ones....
- Poetry > Free VerseMy fingers grip the round, black phone as I unconsciously dial a number I didn't know I remembered. I don't know why I'm calling. Maybe it's because I knew you'd pick up. But I feel like a fish out of water if I don't talk to you. When I'm with you, I ...
- Poetry > All PoetryRising from your heavy soul, You leave the world but not in whole.

Despite the cries of protest, Yo...
