I wished something more Than I could be now, And a body laid to rest Seemed too far away. With lost whispers gone And a life unsung Without deed and Property acknowledged. Farewell, then, steadfast Calm realizes an impasse Of who and how and when A greater goal was left.

Antiseptic hallways gleam, replacing my well-thought dream; where did it go, what do I really know? I held so tightly to what I thought was real but now, what is left to feel? The loneliness of a twin bed, metal wire over a window that once held where I could go? Is this a joke? I’m...
