    we were young once
    in years – yes
    but beyond that…
    in ways you cannot quantify
    a youth borne of possibility
    maybes still on the horizon
    with wide open eyes
    taking chances…
    for the sheer joy of doing
    because of the challenge it represented…
    the suspicion…
    it had never before been tried
    sufficient reason…Read More

  • Time
    Is it time
    I guess it’s time for me
    to give you information you see
    Because I don’t know how I was going to work this day
    Everyday is not like yesterday
    I know that you’re surprised
    I decided to do this at this moment
    Why
    I write poems, I write stories, I write facts
    When it hits me, I have to give it to you
    You understand that…Read More

    • Powerfully penned, Fia. An excellent write with lots of layers my friend. Congrats on writing for 30 days straight that couldn’t have been easy. I don’t think I could do it. Appreciate you, Cuz.

      • Thank you Damian. Well, I actually did this poem free verse on the street walking to work. Its longer than this but I stopped here.

    • The inevitable impulse. The opening – “Is it time / I guess it’s time for me / to give you information” – creates a tension between the inner calling and hesitation. The subject doesn’t decide: time decides for him. It’s almost an involuntary confession.

  • April 30th: LOVE at Last Bite

    April 30th arrives
    with teeth made of twilight.
    Not sharp,
    not cruel,
    just precise,
    the kind of bite
    that ends a month
    without drawing blood.

    It is the moment
    when April leans in,
    slowly,
    deliberately,
    and takes its last bite
    out of everything
    you thought this month was.

    A bite of memory,
