The silhouette of this town spreads the mood Of ivory-eyed nostalgia Unleashed By this present of yore In timeless past Its sweet sky-lorn black coffee tastes Of the reconnaissance of dreams Green are my dreams Stone white Sea blue And moonish-red Yellow red Like a cat's eye Deep with madness Vibrating in this twilight's dawn On crescend-lit nights Raw and harsh Love's coarse voice Strips off The dreamer's skin Day-lit night Cigar-smoke-stark You caught And keep a prisoner Time's memory In me

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
