The Winter SpringDoes the winter really turn into spring,
Does it go from a white to a green sort of thing?

RUSTINGFire is a spirit,
crackling vibrations,
sirring catalyst;
force and energy
of the midday sun.
I raced over
mountains, caressed

used canister
rusting to...

Meant silencing doubts who clung like murky mist,
Listening to the light, which banished my grief.

Causing me to kiss...

Smokey Filled Speak Easy
In the dim-lit alley of the soul's bazaar,
Were jazz and jive spill from ajar,
We tap our feet, snap fingers, under stars,
And speak in verses, raw and without pause.
