• The brakeless truck of Soon May hitting a Frostheart head on

  Gelid stars guide me A lipsy, fang-enveloping smile even friends describe As tricksy seeming, marking a schemer or such unseemly The mad fizz and shook Coke spillover of a bold May Everything is willow now and will sprout Ephebe spirit has all things endowed But my revolving core of mutable ice is Like Yetis and…

• stuckinside

  Rainy day staying inside Housecoat on, blanket raised high Heating on, ease of wanderlust I have wandered long and now the long winter is here, at long last Alas, the frigid blast by which our jagged bog bones are fashioned Returns in maven aspect, blanched verdancy, paling ash and alder Painting the world grimly, pall…
