At 12 years old they called me slow. I was the weird “quiet girl”. Contemplative with every word I lived in a dream like introverted world. They called me slow In the way I moved, but especially the way I talked but I look back at those days. Those days I despised myself for who I was and I see the beauty. I don’t … Continue reading Fast and Slow: Rachel Drobot

The Devil’s Horse: Robert St. Germain
Hop on the Devil’s horse, and, ride it straight to Hell. Spend time with the demons, as they put you under their spell. Do not feel guilty, for we are all the same down here. Do not worry, and do not fear. Fire will come from the horse’s hooves. Say what you have to say, and prove what you have to prove. The flames will … Continue reading The Devil’s Horse: Robert St. Germain
Woman of the Woods: Robert St. Germain
Woman of the woods, dancing by the fire.She chants as her soul rises higher.The moonlight gives her joy and power.She escapes this earth more every hour.Mother Nature in her blood.Her feet stomp on the dirt and mud.Her she is, the mistress of the night.Underneath the stars so bright.
Love Isn’t Poison: Robert St. Germain
Love isn’t poison,It’s good for you.When it doesn’t work out you may feel a little blue.At least you can say you had some fun.It’s worth a try when it’s all said and done.Maybe down the road love will be found.And the wonderful love will turn you around.Love can bite you in the ass.Either way it’s … Continue reading Love Isn’t Poison: Robert St. Germain

Let’s Talk About Love: Renata Bikar
I once read Belcourt’s quote that said,“To love someone, is to firstly confess,I’m prepared to be devastated by you”. I once read a quote of yet another man,It seems that in lifePeople who love youDon’t know how to show it.And, people who hate you,Don’t know how to hide it. I once wrote a poem, about … Continue reading Let’s Talk About Love: Renata Bikar
The World is too Fast: Joyce Lancaster
Spinning, this way,And that way,Coming here, and there,Answering text, email, voicemail.I can’t imagine the older days, when there was no running water.I’m hoping I don’t become too much of a frantic haze for us.Got to remain calm, until the end of the day.

Ennui: Cassandra Kulay
The wind whips, through the still bare trees,and, I’m haunted, by a feeling of vague unease,not still winter, but, not yet spring,dark thoughts plague me, and, uncomfortable memories.Here, stands the facts of my life,unadorned, I am sad, I’m angry, I’m even bored;with comparing what was for what it has the potential to be.I guess, that’s … Continue reading Ennui: Cassandra Kulay
