POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I’ve been writing for a good 20 years but I only keep pieces that I feel strongly about. The rest I cut up into pieces into the trash can. Probably not the most honest approach to life I guess, but I try.

Years roll on
Cycles wax and wane
The fallen rise again
To fall and rise again.
Carry this
burden as a gift
Even when you lift
with bloody broken fists.
A journey long
Lose more ground than gain
Seventeen days of rain
And then it rains again.
But when it does,
You’ll know what to let rust
So when you rule
You’ll know what counts as just.
Cycles wax and wane
The fallen rise again
To fall and rise again.
Carry this
burden as a gift
Even when you lift
with bloody broken fists.
A journey long
Lose more ground than gain
Seventeen days of rain
And then it rains again.
But when it does,
You’ll know what to let rust
So when you rule
You’ll know what counts as just.

Green Thumb
A flower grown in radioactive soil
Insects multiply, birds linger
Love grows the garden in nuclear winter
Hollow black roots, driving deeper still
The living share what remains
The Earth chelating her own poisoned veins
We’ll wake again for even a hint of the sunrise
Endure every blight, bruise and splinter
To plant a garden in nuclear winter.
Insects multiply, birds linger
Love grows the garden in nuclear winter
Hollow black roots, driving deeper still
The living share what remains
The Earth chelating her own poisoned veins
We’ll wake again for even a hint of the sunrise
Endure every blight, bruise and splinter
To plant a garden in nuclear winter.
