Shrapnel shroud,
my exploded seas of change
in golden glowing frames of orange.
I watch the passive roots
surround my feet
and overtake the sweat,
leveling everything
in unknown sanity
like a blue glowing monster
staring me down.
He knows better than I
what will proceed
in contemplating the messages,
that reside
in the dead letter department…
although,
I would prefer not to.
I am the best thing you've never heard of.
I hold a Bachelor's in English, History and Secondary Education, and a Master's in English: Creative Writing, though my appearance belies intelligence.
My goal in life is to write and to be read. It's a modest stretch by most imaginations.
To most I'm amazing.
It all depends on your definition of literary merit.
