• Poem of Slowness and Fire

    echo, echo, echo,a word that returns, a word that dies,a word that insists effortlessly,a word that repeats itself like a sob. game, game, game,fire, fire, fire,a slow, almost morbid circle,a circle that doesn't close,a circle that consumes. there is a deep...

    • I wish I could put this on a reading list…

    • Brilliantly penned, PAR. Into the book it belongs! From Willow and I, she really doesn’t have a reading list that works. You’re such a wordsmith my friend, I’m always blown away when I read your work. Thanks for sharing my brother. Chef’s Kiss!! Appreciate you.

    Thief

    You are a thief With innocence written across the face   You stole each heartbeat The rapid and steady   You stole each breath. The labored and the rapid   You stole time Slipping away as I gaze upon you   As thieves go You are one of the best Not realizing you...

    • Powerfully penned, Nick. It’s not crying wolf my friend. Creativity is cycles and a huge fucking circle that spins like a merry go round brother. When I was a younger version of me I thought about quitting everyday. It doesn’t happen everyday anymore, but the thought will linger from time to time. Sometimes we all have to take a break and find the next path that hasn’t been traveled yet. I call it being stuck between chapters, actually I just made that up. lol. And right on cue the writer in my head is always there. All I’m basically saying is don’t be so hard on yourself my friend. It happens to us all, it’s the one experience we’ve all shared in our creative journey. I think you’re an incredible writer who just needs to reset. Stop thinking about writing completely for a little bit, believe me the itch always returns. Hang in there Nick. Best wishes brother, I’ll see you further down the road. Appreciate you.

    • Our good friend, Damian, is absolutely correct. Be gentle with yourself, let it all go for a while and fill up your reserves. Everything, especially creativity, goes through periods of ebb and flow. Perhaps like a great and deadly thunderstorm your next poetic wallop of a write just needs time to build.

      Keep the ink wet, my friend!

    • I can say with certainty, you made yourself felt in your words. Your love, your passion, your compassion. It’s all there in your writing. I’ve felt your good spirit in it all. I’ve shut down a time or two, thinking it was done. If hitting pause is needed, we’re all still here to greet you with hugs if you return. And if you don’t, you made a lasting impact, my friend. Take a beat, take a breath and follow your star
