Magnum Opus
In case you haven't noticed I'm a poet verbal usage explosive, Wrote it to show I'm potent while showing I'm still unfolding, With words I manage verbs the action within observed, Then swerves I'm pitching curves a gentleman well reserved, I'm classic because I practice my passion bring satisfaction, Imagine the acrobatics of circumstances enacted, On paper with just a pen...

Magnum Opus
My girlfriend is not a poet in the way that most people mean. She is a collector of rare and valuable information. Today, she told me about cats & the color of their coats. We adopted a kitten recently, a baby thing with elastic legs and a penchant for biting paper. She is the color of placing...

Opus
I destroyed a lot of me (I think you must have destroyed it too), not being exactly who I'm supposed to be simulating strength and walking barefoot over coals for so long. Guess the stores never sold what i really needed. I keep thinking about these confusing years and when I touched the essence of truth, pretending so, that you were exactly what I expected, or...

I’m beautifully made but devastatingly asking, “What keeps you awake and keep on going?” Life is an art that is crafted under a...

someday, he will sit stiff on our piano bench to which he has grown accustomed, and i, home, will sit nearby in our cozy armchair, an old accomplice to my posture. i can’t remember the last time i saw him relax this boy, this impossibly-almost man. he will play me...
