Never Really GoneThat ulcer
in his
consciousness
bleeding
to be heard
A canker
of a
muted past
abscessing
every word
Cold sores
of detention
that fade
but never

A virus

hopes and dreams

That day when you did soar without an oar
Twenty-two years of sorrow, too long
For many years, I sang a solemn song
Days of dark, and greedy clouds
These...

What people don’t tell you about college,

And nearly smothers out
While prayers of love
Fall softly from a mother’s mouth.
