READ THE BLURB

Collecting seashells

Off the sands of time,
I race to Grandfather Clock.

Barter,
Burden,
Broken,
Bought.
My broken shells are gone.
The beach is empty.

I
Have
Nothing
But salt and canvas.

What new life
Can I create?

READ AN EXCERPT

A Meteor Left Me Hollow

The raid is so excruciating. How do I describe a punch From space?

The asteroids never stopped Or so it felt. They mortified my atmosphere. A meteor left me hollow.

It had far too many clones, Born of selfishness. Dominance. Envy. Rage.

A being of vampiric touch, He robbed me Of my organs. Cut my walls And burnt my innards.

Take and take And Take! That is all A herd of meteors Can comprehend Or succeed at.

Dignity is as clouds, Having had their form stolen, And morphed to the sculpture, Only pain could love.

I must save myself. This galaxy Could murder me.
