Come around. Link arms.You’ll drown where we surroundinside reflections of our own masking.We bleed for all we leave,losing breath in all we undressin wounds that keep openingwith limbs that are folding. I find that weare never jealous in eachof those pairs of eyes,tempted throughout puddles,reflections we might have fumbledwhen we caught our heartsfrom stars to…

There werespaces to move, to unearth youdrowned beneathan ocean of mourning’s dew.I pressed your hand, to resurrectlove at its waters,to meet what remains beautifulat this renewable glimpseat what stays plentiful. There were eyes to undressof their tears, upon their nakedfears, in words unconfessed.You have held in your rain,tasting what grows ingrainedas a bitternessinside your emptiness.…

Another hourto remember, to recollecteach time you sweptthose pieces, overboard.All times, we spokeout from handfuls of dust,you rose, to hear,covered in rust. Carve those miles, ashore,blanket all traceswith faces we cannot adore.Some kisses splash backfates that we held intact.Some instincts of lovenever remove themselves,from idling glaciers. I keep roaming.I keep combingdesert trails, to discover youon…

“Whoever claims to be in support of minority rights must also be in support of individual rights. Any greater-in-number minority supported, over an individual, becomes a support of a majority over a minority. If one cannot support an individual right, such as a right to bear arms, one can be disqualified of their credibility to…

When love forces itself, it becomes rape, or it becomes what one cannot tolerate.” – Modern Romanticism Human nature dictates that a person must fall in love or…

Though wekept brushing asidegrains that set a stain,our lipsfound a depth that wemight have kept, were weto remain asleep. Grains to our dust,in our death, upon reddest rust.Countless as snowwith summer bringingour bodies low.

Those same stampsto time’s disheveled face.Those present waters,here to level our entrancesto uncovered surfaces.Waist around, with a hand aboutyour form in a blood-red ocean,with a kiss for our journey. Awake to undertakethese moments where wediscover hope before its doorcloses a broken dam.We are meant to flooda land in our radiant blood,to water driest soilin deserted…

“Name a crime motivated by fear and it reveals what all humans keep a potential for. There can be no resolution to an issue that remains universal. Someone can fear someone else whom they do not know. When this occurs, there can be no hatred in this. There can only be ignorance, coinciding with that…

An individual can dominate a collective, to name simply that group as inferior, when an individual has not been regarded first. Capability to an individual can only be through them, though when they regard themselves first as…

“If we care to solve, we will not need as many resources. In this absence of care, resources become our supplement. We replace a heart, meant to be there within us, with material, ephemeral resources. All meant for accessibility to us cannot be always in this manner for a resource. As there can be nothing…

“Some argue that choice can be all one needs. Wherever has been an argument to tell everyone that when it comes to doing right, there can be no choice? A choice often falls into a realm, belonging to excuse. Excuse. Escapism. Or a wish to be free, without earning freedom. A desire to rest, while…
