BricksBrick by brick, I built this home,
each piece with purpose, in which it owns.

Trees around the home
Is cleared to...

Requiem for a Lonely WomanIn the outskirts, where whispers weave through the wind,
there stands a farmhouse, its timbers groaning with secrets,
a silhouette etched against the horizon’s fading light.

but now, it’s...

Feeling WatchedCity life is blinding me,
Loud and clamoring it demands
Coaxes me out of my hands
Makes it so i cant see.

Unlikely Mike, for Michael JacksonUnlikely Mike
by Michael R. Burch
I married someone else’s fantasy;
she admired me despite my mutilations.
I loved her for her heart’s sake, and for mine.
