In the Hours Between
It was in the morning When I heard him snoring Like loud like a lion He who falls from my eyes Every sense feeling nonsense Early lights in goosebumps Served myself a red riddle Leaving me tortured and energetic Shooting my lungs to no air My kidneys helped me breathe Each cough counting complaints In a peaceful war against the...

Wordless Peace
The river moves but never dies, It carries all it cannot keep. Beneath its glass, the silence lies, A cradle where the old dreams sleep. I watch it wind through stone and silt, A silver ribbon pulled by time. It bears the weight of love and guilt, And every joy we failed to climb. I see my face in trembling glass, A thousand selves...

Premium Member Fungi
I like my fungi sauteed in butter in a pan with a chopped clove of garlic, parsley and plenty of salt and pepper. Or sliced and simmered in chicken stock with arborio rice and topped with parmesan cheese in a creamy mushroom risotto. I like the musty, earthy smell that some fungi have, the exquisite delicacy of the gills, the soft, spongy feel, the variety of shapes and colours that...

Attention Deficits-Dysautonomia edition
Warm yellow light. Chilly, for indoor. Soft, soothing, piano. Music— Door slides open. A man walks in, his eyes— Rain’s wailing outside. He talks to the nurse. His voice hoarse like sand— Flash, lightening. Raindrops darken the dusty walk— Thunder. He sinks into the bench beside me. Stinging smell of cigarette butts— Another thunder. Door slides close and muffles it. Nurse says my name. I walk into the doctor’s— A muffled thunder. I don’t...

Fulcrum of a Rose A lambent sight, my morning star, sweet essence on my tongue. A mem'ry stirred—those bygone days, a secret love so young. That lambent sight, my nostrils seared, trust wrought of hope and fear. She loves me so, she loves me not— I beg I pray, my dear. I wonder whence...
