Tales From the Multiverse: April 15, 1912
I step outside to get some air
upon the ship’s fine teakwood deck,
the North Atlantic air bites deep,
I raise my collar ’round my neck.

Remind myself that it’s April,
and that it must be near midnight,
the long bow...

Through the barren lands of scorched desert,

Clueless I was about the paradigm of love.

He flicks his shiny offering towards depths unknown,

Born December 5, 1961,

Massapequa proud, Long Island.

lined once with what now are
vintage Chevys, Buicks,
our lime-green Rambler.

Premium Member Forgiveness
When angst and hate my rancor stirred
Fuming indignation, reddening my face,
Emotions choked as muscles tightened,
Slurring my speech, abandoning grace;

Dissonance hollered, yet no one listened,
Donning grimace that...
