If Not For Love

...If Not For Love
by Michael R. Burch, circa age 18

The little child who cries,
brushing sleep from startled eyes,
might not have awakened from her dreams
to fill the night with plaintive scream...

The Clocks Go Back One Hour

...Time changes with life and life changes with time.
October grows too old,
Hobbling backwards
With the burden of years,
On the sinuous alcove of time,
Tenebrous and feathery,
Her hidden lamps bl...

Apollo and Daphne by Bernini A collaboration with Di11y Da11y

...

when i can search
the darkened sinews of my mind

Spring's Abysmal Guile

...Spring’s Abysmal Guile
By Sy Roth

A vapor rises, rank as the charnel pit,
a corruption of a miasma vast,
as though some sepulcher, long sealed,
split its stony jaws to breathe.
Vile exhalatio...

Perfect Bones

...Here comes the North Wind
Blowing the mountain of bones
Suddenly bones moving like whirlwind
Bone to bone connected its parts
To form a human skeleton standing
Throng of them standing in front o...

editing woes consume me

I spent countless late nights

Guidance sought in artistic hand

Wisdom dawn within

Of the artist whose hand I revere
