Favorite Quote:
Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something.<br /> -Plato


A shriveled leaf

barrels downward

before being caught

in the clack

of gnarled branches.


The leaf clung

onto the precipice

of destruction,


before piece by piece

his grip unravels

and down he travels

into the silence

of a pristine landscape


there he lay

and there he screamed


a cloth of white               consumed                 by a black hole

and a sound of mourning             shatters the calm
