hurry..hurry..

volatile flickering glim--

exposed and expiring

within trenchant

tangling convolutions

 

murmur..murmur..

fragile faithless prayers--

wrestled and relented

from incoherent

idling dissolutions

 

stumble..stumble..

My Poetry

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In writing poetry

I am a hack.

But I enjoy

writing so give

me some slack.

 

With the

comments don't

be mean, or

and please
