BLOODOATH
We made a blood oath...
and yet the promise of it dissipated with the conversation I often expected.
As much as I’d love to over-describe, as some might expect me to, the weight of how I feel while concocting the narratives of Univerza, my writings mislead me.
I might say the campfire stories I told, which wrote themselves, are but a light in a pitch forest as I meander away ...

JASPER & JUNIPER
JASPER & JUNIPER
There are dawned mornings some often find the same balcony just months in difference,
Leaned over the same stretch of oak-beam and widen pupils
To untangle their breath as it intertwines with lake-steam;
And watch dragon-tailed sunrises in different-hued scenes.
Back inside a fire-warmed cabin held up by support beams over a thin beach
Prior to high-tide,...

...Even Then, We Are Happy...
First, from nothing scarce.

Doors sunken within eyes. Sunny shoveled graves. Hollowed out e...

...This Is Man...
They frame me in the milestones. Something like an unkempt garden. I am half naked in blizzards of truth. Temperamental hands unclothe me...
