Do Unto OthersWelcome to the new millennium
Seven years in the making.
Forever forsaking.

It Can'T Be ArtIt can’t be art

Plastered like mud on the walls of Pompeii
Frescos of joy before charcoal was misting
Writing in ash, catastrophic display

the reflecting light,
we grasped
keloids of memories—running.
And like fishermen of food,
we webbed together
the broken pieces of history
and casted our nets into the sea:

An Angel named Forthright
And the God Who now presided;
But the polls predicted Forthright's right-wing swing!

Season of love and natural propense,

When Flora casts off her wintery shroud and bursts into flower,
