A little cat named Ganji, so quiet and so meek. A gentle friend to everyone any day of the week. A soft-spoken little man who brought comfort when we were together. You are loved, you are missed, today, tomorrow and forever.

New Boy in the Factory Dim haze in the long gray building; smoke of molten metal, faint and acrid. Banging, burning, hissing sounds emerge from every torch bright niche. The sun struggles through the thick and cracked two layered windows, to light ...

Twitch and itch risky intensity: Dust settles upon a cast iron brim of blended identity. Flowing liquid sky's bloom with shards of insanity. Gnawing sands of gravity ghosting levity. Bound hinges of flaxen bravery void and eerie . Empty is not the...

Grimbol is a word that I invented as poets that is one of the rites of passage to make new words. So the title is Grimbol: Maniacal was the magic in the thimble of the nimble grimbol. Panic brewed in the picnic basket that contained the key that ...

Talking to the Cat 21 How crafty the critter be. He sneaks into the warmest chair as soon as it's deserted, however briefly, with a furtive air, as if to say "who, me?" I know you hear me, you old debbil cat. All hunkered down into the cushions,...
