Even with the frogs and fishies I no longer wish to play. I’ve lost my course and lie inert inside my riverbed. Had I legs to help me...

A cold lion roams, doctrinaire and sterile, The expanse of Africa offers him no sanctuary, the Saringehti no salvation, He can only smell the scent of his pride now, his cubs shun him, Repelled by needless roars, the revolting rants, Tail tattered, biten by jackels at will, His nose bit and beaten from battles better avoided, Soul tethered to a label,...

Bird song perks in the mind as the gray haze drenches the horizon. It becomes harder and hard to think. The monochromatic hours pass from felt gray, slate gray, to black And repeat. The furnace hums. It is the only thing with heart. Hope of spring does not rise eternal. It corrodes with the incessant rainfall. Raw, wet, green, will the vivid...
