Knowledge That No One Wants
What I am, what you are not, what you need and what I want, that you do not have. The stars above do not pretend, Their light is truth that will not bend. But hearts, like mirrors clouded fast, Reflect a world that cannot last. I am the quiet, the silken dusk, You are the fire, the sunlit husk. Your need is...

An Obsolete Man
Divorce robbed him of surprise, left him disused, parts of his brain tingled less, he grew blasé, he had to improvise, extemporize parts that were less prone to rust and mold. It seemed he was a bare broom, one that could no longer sweep away a rising sense of purposeless. Then it was that a new surprise found him, he began to make yesteryear...
