His face imprinted
hidden under layers of ink
he whispers his words
like a haunting breeze
dust blown off the pages
towards the back of their minds
once-in-a-while

An Elegy for a Fallen Bridge: Baltimore’s Night of TragedyAs night draped its cloak over Baltimore's sleeping form,

You mean everything to me
From sea to shining sea,
To my beloved homeland,

The Trials of Meretrix Canto IWhen your befuddled mind
Forsakes upon the ragged edge
Of swirling darkness;
Where eternal night awaits
To sate upon purest innocence
Besides an open grave!
When the gravity of your perils
Be foully whispered within
Dismayed
And abject earshot;
Where salvation for despairing souls
Be so...
