Just real life haikus.

Alec is displeased with what life has to offer him. He longs for something more, something new to experience. One night a boy saves him, a different boy, who is traveling with the circus that has visited Alec’s town. It is a story about questions and answers: “Is it right to be happy when others around you are not?” and the path to deal with the world’s pain.

These are some poems I wrote about a time in my life in my mid-teens, that was both painful and scarey for a young boy. I was facing both death and rejection. My grandfather had a lake we would go to and fish. But there were times I would go alone to just think and sort through everything happening in my life. This is my way of saying that if we would just stop and think our way through things, there is no mountain we cannot climb or no goal we cannot reach.

Memories define our lives, but can life define memories?

A series of poems about the search for sunlight. An invitation for an individual walk in your soul.

The Coliseum, a place where the bloodlust of the masses is sated by the death of those whose fates are decided by others. What happens when freedom and slavery clash? Who walks away?
