A Message From Our Guest Editor, Elemen2al the Poet

Afternoon Contemplation

..oh to be an eagle..
..find peace in the wind..
..become birdwatchers..

My 3rd damnation of an ascent

..i painted me..
..it turned out to be all about me..
..its all about that nothing..
..on my path to sanity..
..next please..
..agonizing whip of a sexy thong..
..unheard words of the ancient past..
..meet my runaway angst..
..cosmic disaster..
..turns beauty into that orgasmic reality..
..come to my funeral, wear lilies on your head..
..you may borrow my longing dreams..
..i will kick your sleepy ass..
..my three-dimensional sonic boom..
..my imagination will never be disappointed..
