My Perspective, By: Gordon Roberts

September 23, 2026 by Gordon Roberts

The Jacket Of Sadness, By: Irma Kurti

Bat shot shapes shift around in the shroud that I’m buried in
Nobody sees them but me
They haunt me permanently
Don’t have a heart for the fight
In turmoil constantly

Echoed calls from the past are invading my living space
My anchor lost to the deep
A void inside of me
Need to be underground
Attempting to be free
