Friendship Dissolves
Mountains of snow, with colder snow underneath. We all have phones in our pockets. I set a timer to the last time we talked. Left it all in the snow. A river is where we used to hang out. Is now just a river with fish, and not us. The fish wonder where we went....

Premium Member The outside world makes me sick, suffocates me, dissolves my essence beneath my own skin
The outside world makes me sick, suffocates me, dissolves my essence beneath my own skin, Home seems like a distant illusion, reality—a thin veil ready to tear, I beg for other shells to cover my body, to hide my vulnerability, Loose clothes, shining chains, quiet shoes—all to divert attention. I try to hide the pain, to blur the days...

A Future Dissolves
I am guilty of pretending to have friends. We were connected by a shared education that eventually ends. And when that reality dissolves… When I failed out of school, the end never resolved. And I told people that I might be back. After I left, it became clear what I lack. I used to be able...

The Slain Sun Dissolves
bleeding purple scents of storms ignite imagined nations of magi dressed as scholars wearing blank faces feeding the furnace cash scrawled in ink infused with tones of blood inaudibly whistling dirges of delirious breath invoking the name of struggles flexing dense cords of flesh swelling screams hiding in a temple’s glow blasting the essence of western fantasies bellowing conceptions inside dead...

When Love Dissolves
My weary soul returns to mourn in Appalachia, A place were Sam built well my burial chamber. Now, drunken slumber translates my long held grief, And no boundless peace gives me relief. Sorrow begets tears. Can life name now one man To grieve when love dissolves? Oh, but when time comes for you like a thief, Take heed you don’t spit in the...

Fire Dissolves Ice Yet You Can Make Fire With Ice
There comes a bloodless slaughter There comes a day turned into night As they toil with their dreams, their fodder As they face an immortal might Watercolors awash with orange, yellow and red bleeding Seeping and dropping little rainbow jewels On dewey fields coveted by man, fertile for seeding Under the rising sun's heat, searing and brutal Mystical ideas threaded into a life...
