Sulphuric Poems

And I lose 
In the sulphur
Of the loss.
I'm pushing forth,
All guile,
While all the while,
The world spins around.
Turning with it
Bursting 
With light and sound.

Deeply moving write this is, poignant and powerful how raw emotions when expressed can sound, I just saw your contest info, saw you are going through a divorce, its never easy when kids are involved although ofcourse divorce sometimes is necessary, it just is painful. Iv been through it and i know how it must be for you too. Sending you light. Always

Is there a better way to get drunk than in New Orleans (lol). Feel the emotion here, Matt. PS: I just read you are going through a divorce, it's not easy, trust me. I've been divorced twice. Things do get better, my friend. Stay strong and positive. All the best.. Charlie

Thanks Charles! I've really been moved by the outreach and compassion from total strangers when they hear about what I'm going through. I will stay strong and positive, thank you!
