Poems

"Through The Stained Glass"

"The sun barricaded by grey skies cold zephyr,

Barrels occupied by blazing fires and amber

Slipping beneath the covers to close my eyes,

To escape the nightmare of muffled cries."

"The Knife"

"Hair falling to the floor brought tears to my eyes,

The insults cascaded with each disguise

The scalpel has no mind of its own as it cuts away,

Nothing left but consciousness and the soul to pray."

"Directions of Thought"

"Tossing and turning in a cluttered mind,

A relentless bombardment,

Of ceaseless meanderings,

To which one cannot leave behind."

Short Story

"A Movie Theater"
