Poem Artwork

It’s a beautiful view from here

Everything is so perfectly clear

You can see so much

Once you can obtain this vantage

To see over those

Who are blocking your view

You can’t climb this high

Carrying around all of that baggage

And you don’t need that crap

That you insist on clinging to

You could just flick it off of your shoulder

And let it clatter to the cold hard ground

It only weights you down

When you open that bag-

 it makes you cry

 

And - you’re the one that packed it

 

From this advantageous perspective

I have had the opportunity to see

A fantastic plane where distance means nothing

And desire transcends miles to a satisfying end

Where the mountain goddess now dances

In a cosmic commingling with

A cherry continental cherub 1700 miles

Over the oceans and seas

She vows never to love again,

“because it just hurts”

To a romance's little cupid

Who will certainly rescue

The wronged goddess

Thump the drum as

Ye speak of renewal

Hold my head against your breast

That I may hear the beating of your heart

 

And then set you in stone what you only considered

For eternity

An opus of epic proportions, Zenith, if you will, this one should be put in a scrapbook filled with marbled paper and gold intaglio Victorian picture corners and passed on as an heirloom to your daughter...

Very intense Blue, I love how you lay out the ways of love and the fears of getting a broken heart.

Zara's Bois by Gracie McKeever

When the powers-that-be make the decision to return a selfish party-girl, Zara, to Earth on three missions of redemption, can romance and mayhem be far behind? One hot and trendy gay nightclub, two bickering angels and three unlikely pairs add up to

Another Way of Being by Sion Liscannor

A (shockingly) truthful autobiography with elements of fantasy, philosophy, and historical fiction.
