POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have been writing poems for quite awhile, but only got back into it recently.

Almost a writer
Stale black ink once radiant
Its luster brave and bold
Found hidden in an old desk drawer
Beside the fountain pen I thought I sold
The sword’s blade dull and broken
The sacred blood run cold
A hero cowered in a corner
A gambler forced to fold
And there beneath the pen and ink
The lines still gasped and groaned
Remnants of an unfinished story
The pristine silk unsewn
The ink spots almost useless
Appearing lifeless, stiff and blue
Interred within the constraints
Of the words I once knew
Once...
Its luster brave and bold
Found hidden in an old desk drawer
Beside the fountain pen I thought I sold
The sword’s blade dull and broken
The sacred blood run cold
A hero cowered in a corner
A gambler forced to fold
And there beneath the pen and ink
The lines still gasped and groaned
Remnants of an unfinished story
The pristine silk unsewn
The ink spots almost useless
Appearing lifeless, stiff and blue
Interred within the constraints
Of the words I once knew
Once...
