Baby it is cold outsideI can hear the mouthless wind,
loudly howling outside my window.
Its wingless unseeable form whipping through the leafless trees.
Ridding the branches wildly,
blowing falling flakes onto every available space,
and covering them in whites,
giving them...

When anybody neared.
The scourge of the West,
And the ultimate sinner.

With a patch on his eye.
He'd...

The Tale of the Holiday DevilIt’s not for the mere frail
this cautionary tale
of wicked yuletide fright
Do come inside

on this dark and snowy night
A chilling yarn from long before
in the glorious days of yore...

OLD MAN WINTER SNUCK UP ON ME
OLD MAN WINTER
SNUCK UP ON ME.
I REALIZED THIS
WHEN I SAW MY TREE.
NO LEAVES ON THE TREE
POOR TREE WAS BARE
WINTERS FROST
WAS IN THE AIR.
THE CLOUDS WERE GRAY.
THE TEMPS WERE LOW.

WERE STARTING TO BLOW
THE DAYS WERE...

To right the wrongs, sculpt out lasting monuments with our blood, sweat and tears
It's also a countdown timer, ticking clocks signalling...

Winter WryMy heart is a charcoal gray
With silver specks in the sun
Tomorrow is New Year's Day
And this old year, my dear, is done
A bit of moss on the north knoll
The hills of my heart burrowed through
And...

Winter RoseIn March I asked the daffodil
What secrets it might hold
And like the loose-lipped lily
The flower gladly told
Now December’s icy breath
Shudders the shriveled rose
And I do not dare to ask it
For fear of what it...
