It’s funny to read
Dissection of poetry
As if a corpse
Is aware of the fondle
In contrast
Poetry can be
Very much alive
It can even raise the dead.

Write it down
Everything inside
The volume and vigor
In which you write
Will reveal
All that life
Has given you to share
The writer reveals
Bit by bit
Reality leaks
We can’t help it.
We don’t leave ourselves behind
Like luggage after vacation
We travel alone, but not alone at the same time.
When’s your next flight to the written world?
How long can you stay?
Cycle through the mind
By reading through the work
This is how you exercise.
Cardio cognition
Too much can tire.
You have to slow down
Then you can breathe.
When you write
You don’t only write about you
You write about others as well.
Indirectly or not
Some will get it, others will not.
Keep the connection
It resembles reflection.
Love the words
And use them well
They are all you have.
Curled into bed reading
The company of language written
The mind of another
Eyes intensely on the work
Words intensely pleasing
This too, a closeness
Hi everyone,
getting use to mobile only posting on the blog. I’ve updated the publication history and collections tabs.
It includes 3 poems in the Fevers of the Mind poetry blog, a flash fiction in Sledgehammer Lit, and an interactive fiction flash on itch.io titled Notable Neighborhood Garbage. If it doesn’t run on mobile try desktop or vice versa, still experimenting with the medium/program.
I’ve put together a small collection of poetry titled Inside the Dripping Stain as well. These poems have the commonality of blood. If you’re interested the collection is available for download.
As always, thank you for reading. Hope you’re all doing well. 🙂
Through language
We connect
We confuse
We clarify
Through language
We can be one
Or simply two
Wanting, searching
For one

Been thinking about the last post and the decision to put the blog on hold.
Would I really let a minor inconvenience stop me? Breaks are fine but this blog was meant to be what it is, an outlet, a place to put the work.
It’ll take longer for me to post but that’s a minor issue. I’m thankful I’m able to post at all and I want to keep posting.
Thank you for sticking around.
Hey everyone,
using an old PC and outdated browsers could only last for so long. WordPress on PC won’t allow me to post anymore(white screen). I’m typing to you from a phone.
Long story short, it looks like the blog’s on hold for now. These past few years have been great. I’ve really enjoyed updating the site. Thank you for sticking with me.
And hey, once I’ve updated a few things I don’t mind posting again. In the meantime I’ll focus on my writing. Twitter link is in my bio.
Not sure if I’ll pop up elsewhere but hey, you never know.
Thanks again.
What can you do once finding out
That your favorite writer died
The same year you were born
One dies so another can live
You feel a connection deep down
As if a person dissipated
And became a sort of breathe
Air you inhaled
Fresh from the womb
Is this a possible thing or an idea to consume?
