POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
"I don't like my mind right now, stacking up problems that are so unnecessary. Wish that I could slow things down; I want to let go right now, but I find there's comfort in the panic. And I drive myself crazy, thinking everything's about me."

dearest elfling
from the moment the world began, your journey was set in stone. hard lived will be your life and few will you find by your side. endure you must, the trauma of loss.

2018
It's 2018:
our bees are slowly becoming extinct
plastic is choking our oceans and ocean life
humanity still refuses to remove the blinders
climate change is still a 'myth', while wild life contract new bacteria that causes them to bleed from their eyes
oh, i heard the eastern puma is now extinct
water is a precious resource, contaminated and capitalized
the color green has never made me more ill
illegal logging can be seen from space and indigenous peoples' voices are still silenced
opinions are a dime a dozen and i am choked with absolute...

the saga of transformation (pt. 1)
this world entered within me backwards and fleeting
a soul crushed and slated for destruction.

behind eyes once mine
have i always been an ancient soul, gnarled and before their time?
or have i simply, simply, simply passed my prime? was there a time when naivite could have been exposed?

a box once opened
there is no need for idle words, simply a passing glance crafted only for me and i know. in turn my deepest wish, is that you do too.
inside my head there is chaos, it seeps - dark and broken, you are my light. within my veins you swim, a home constructed of bones.
you are ambrosia, an addiction impossible to kick and I ...
