An Oasis: Robert St. Germain
I wish I had an island from time to time. A place I can go when there is too much on my mind. I wish I had a fortress to get away sometime. I could just sit by the fire writing my rhymes, have a place of peace and solitude, Maybe the world would not … Continue reading An Oasis: Robert St. Germain
The Mask I Wear: Stephen Sigurdson
Emotions are there, they affect us in every way, as we become adults, many of us hide them with a mask, deep, submerged, in our soul they stay.

My Efforts Will Be Rewarded: Stephen Sigurdson
Weakness, vulnerable to circumstance, a trap door, mazes of my own mind’s design, puzzles with missing pieces, incomplete, games with no winners, every option seems like defeat, waking up just to repeat. My pain is deep down into my soul’s pit, I am hiding deep within, entrenched, with a masked heart, my storage is overflowing. … Continue reading My Efforts Will Be Rewarded: Stephen Sigurdson

The Path of Life: John Oross
Standing along the edge of a wandering brook, you gaze into the water below. The reflection of you and the world around is disturbed by the constant movement of the water cascading over the bed of rocks. The sound of all this movement rushes to your ears adding its voice to the orchestra of life … Continue reading The Path of Life: John Oross
Vixens of Vanity: Gerald Herron
The all-American dream... blue eyes, blonde hair, Barbie Doll effect, Beauty becomes an everyday duty; foundation, blush, mascara. Soon you won't remember what's underneath. And like apprentices of Michelangelo, starving your bodies into Italian marble. The quest for the perfect breasts... cosmetic perjury. Paint by numbers, trays of water colours, they'll make you look pretty... … Continue reading Vixens of Vanity: Gerald Herron
