Featured Book
The Smart Brain Train
by Nina Anderson

A delightfully illustrated story that teaches children how to have a healthy brain with note to parents & teachers in the back. Great for home schooling...

A final rain

the future is always uncertain, until consumed



civilization
reduced to a stream of anecdotes
of yesterday clinging
to the bones of tomorrow

storybook jackals
choke down the sleeping remains
they run and they ramble

in the perfect silence
of the rain
on the plain
once known as Spain.
