Bricks.

by Brian Sharp


There's a dead man sitting in my living room,
I hope he knows his irony isn't welcome here.
This rotting man with hair so black that it always looks wet-
he's my father.
He is no longer with us, he's with me.
My clandestine hemorrhage.
The desperation in his eyes haunt me throughout my day.
The opposite of a guardian angel.

He gave me a gold watch for last year's Christmas-
the color of a drunk's piss.
I guess that means he loves me.
I guess.
I guess I should know.
But I don't, his only truth to me has been
crossed out by repressed memories
that ravage at my hate without remorse.
I've never been one to allow sheaves of scars to go unnoticed,
but I was born with these. Bad genetics they say.
The watch doesn't fit,
but thank you dad.
For giving me time

You never let me forget.
Even now, you howl in my ears.
Reminders that your blood is of an addict,
and so is mine.
I've built this wall for a reason,
not to be protected from you,
but to save you from what's inside myself.

People Mature into Mirages

by SpokenOh


I am,
Shakespeare in a world of imposters,
All the fakes I’ve come to hate,
Are words I must foster,
Into life.
Into light.

It’s a handful, reading this Braille to the masses
A landfill of opinions that I’ve put into caskets
And I will never mask it, with a flag or color.
I’ll wait for the reprise of life
Into summer.

Soapbox impressions, botox expressions,
shadows causing inflection.

Children of the corn; a pilgrim of the norm,
Scorning the mourning which takes place
After the storm.
After the war.

A glinting detection, a squinting erection
Of the sundial playing God in a dialogue
Of regression.

A child smiles, says,
“People mature into mirages, collages,
mosaics of the Ancients. Wait patient,
sunrise will make truth blatant, as
we stand vacant to belief.”

Etudes universitaires à l’Université Paris VIII au département Photographie, Maîtrise des Sciences et Techniques. Je travaille en tant que photographe indépendant principalement pour l’édition (littérature adulte et jeunesse), la communication d’entreprise et la presse. Je commence à exposer mes recherches personnelles à travers de nombreux sites web et des festivalsTechniquement, j’exploite des médiums variés (numérique,films argentiques,films instantanés) que je tente d’adapter au mieux en fonction des sujets choisis. Je poursuis actuellement des séries sur les thêmes de l’urbanisme, du littoral français et de manière plus intimiste, sur des mise en scènes oniriques.

Obviously Knot

by Tim Clark


Without reason I return letters
to sender entitled RE: Son.
Cursing innovation... that
hostile, bastard child of tradition
who wields words as weapons,
welding cold steel to paper as
fingers nervously turn the pages;
eyes find each line like a trigger.

If prepositions could pistol whip
to hold the students attention
instead of elitists debating over
the thought of a thesaurus
as being something prehistoric,
then we'd have hands, not heads
filled with erasable lead and
the butt of a gun will be nothing
more then a subject predicate.

*Editors note: The printing press is dead.
We've burned all the better quotes.

I hoped when the ink dried we'd
have died to this way of thinking,
but my stomachs in 'nots' criticizing
blind usage of such intricate plots.
Gut wrenched that you monkeys
are using pens and pads to bang
hungrily on pots and pans ever since
readers digest got an appetite!

You've tied you're own noose
but doubtfully hung upside down.
Now drown in loose leaves or
breath a sigh into blank sheets
as a subtle sign of relief for
feet buried silently in the clouds.
Before concrete thinking comes to
cement heads to the ground.

To be honest, you'll go unrecognized
because journalists are more
concerned with politics and society
then the way a dead poet writes.

Understand?
(or should I impart my parts of speech;
debrief literature, literally?)




Hmm?... Obviously knot.
We'll continue lynching ourselves to the top.
