It feels against natural law for majestic moments to end, and yet, time peers critically awaiting to captivate the commanders of presence when the hold weakens. Swallow the grief of atrophy, rip away from stolen spaces, say goodbye and glace back once more time. The cruelty of interconnection in an isolated existence is ridiculous and […]

Marsh Walk
Blue grey feathers, oblivious to me, carry on and catch your fish- creatures swimming in a current, oblivious to you- only diverting at the break of water, and I watching, regretfully separate, on land, eyeing the surface. I am an unnatural thing, with a natural root- the trees comfort me, but you ignore me, must […]
Blackberry.
I pluck experiences like blackberries, hands torn, fingers stained, as if existence needed validation.
Current
A brown river, rippled surface, reflective but obscure, I sit on the bank and consider its allure. What it lacks in warmth is found in embrace; What is given in life is taken in haste. The vitality within is observed by inspection, of a quiet mind and careful reflection. But I squatting here, know the […]
Mirror.
Behold the monster that I am, Words have failed at my salvation, And now, without the tongue of Gods befriending me, I am mortal and infantile, I am but the ground that supports me, A cold dead thing, And thus my spirit dampened by relentless mist, A chill. A retreat. May warmth wander near me. […]
I can see you, part 6
Less of a dive, she fell into the water. Inhale, fill the lungs with fluid. Exhale, the dust of their world. She reached for the bottom, cutting through the river’s defenses of pressure and substance. A scream, frustration, an oath. The next lure will be dissected. Finally, an impact of warmth. The mud coats her […]

I watched her crawl from the cold shore, crouching in the briar, unseen, unadorned. I could feel the urge to run and embrace her, and yet, I withheld and let fear replace her. She steadied a foot, not used to our land, while I stared from the wilds, and sat still, understand, that the […]
I can see you, part 4
One step, one more, and then another. The sun mocked her, the dark creature walking in light. The ground punishing but withstanding. Beyond lie the wood, she was surrounded by quiet chaos, ordered indifference, and complete exposure. Still, she found herself alone. Unlike her empty, crowded kingdom of water, always embraced, entrenched, and encompassed, here, […]
I can see you, part 3
And she emerged from her murky muddy domain, The water still clinging to bare skin, Her feet soft from floating, And stepped upon the bank of sharp grass. Now bleeding, she stops and takes a look around, The woods are silent. Unlike her aquatic existence, This place is hard. Seeking her seeker, she gently steps […]
Paper and Pen
Michael, Forgive this crisp page and well-formed script. I regret that the present has made ink and paper quite ineffectual, and the only way I managed this note is through a temporary repurposing of the ship’s computer. In the event of a complete display malfunction, data is printed. Do not worry my dear, they […]
