Light, A Distant Vista
Responsible, preoccupied, needs, daily duties, urges to create Atlas beneath my half sky inventing my truth in beauty before I’m late Days fast-paced, so full of shoulds and musts to meet and answer When so few seek either truth or beauty; they don’t pay the financier Is shielding the candle flame from darkness worth the […]

Found Verbiage Flash Fiction
Found fiction, conceived I believe by Eric Alagan, is a concept I discovered on his site Written Words Never Die. You’ll find him at http://ericalagan.net/ I highly recommend the visit. Although I’m working on some strictly concept pieces, I decided initially to apply my own twist and use the daily newspaper headlines and subheads I […]
