A Matter Of Faith
When I was a child, I wondered
Was deep sleep, death?
Was every morning a new life, a new incarnation?
Waking up, I found the people around me were the same
I was the same too, nothing changed
This cannot...

Reason Without Rhyme
by Michael R. Burch
I used to be averse
to free verse,
but now I admit
YOUR rhyming is WORSE!
But alas, in the end,
it’s all the same:
all verse is unpaid
and a crying shame.

Aubade On the Morning AfterIm half awake, and glaring at the sunrise
distant brilliance slowly eating at my dry eyes
squinted to best witness the aureate Apollo
refract off blades soaked through with dew

Crossing a Continent At NightDown a runway skybound
to cross a continent,
see from a window
a city fall away
with bright beads
strung along a coast,
then turning inland,
clumped townships
shrinking to solitary lights
sunk far apart
into hours
of featureless dark.
Disconnected
from the...

Final Nesting BoxYou lay in the wooden cot,
a broken sparrow,
Crushed. Bony. Frail.
Hair once plumed gold,
greyed to clumped feathers
like ragged trampled wings,
strawed out on the dank pillow.
Face once blushed pink plump,
Jolly kind of soft with life,
Sucked to...

For your cool, existant, real caution-
Realer than your eyes
Your smile
Your kindness
That are now dull recollections in my mind
Eyes that had fluttered, shimmered
With grandier light,
Such lively might
Only now you make an...

Back To SchoolTheir satchels (twenty five) within auto-rickshaw seats dumped,

The driver, gliding as though great battle won...

My Universe of BullMy vacuum cleaner’s broken,
sits in the garage gathering dust
Beside dad’s old green car,
oxidising an orangey rust

Well the colour miraculously looks,
venetian turpentine

As the outer edges of my skin brush past
I can hear them say

Splayed in the middle lane of Washington Street

And there was a man clumped to the curb
Pinching his chubby chin
Between his thumb and index finger
Like a final played poker...
