A poem I wrote about the disconnect between work, parenthood, and dreams. How they all seem so simple, but so distant. Enjoy.

This poem really pinpoints how I feel writing horror, and how it relates to my family and historical trauma. Give it a read. It is a lot for me to process. It'll take a lifetime, I suppose.

Read my poem about how unfamiliar kindness can be in this modern world. It is both personal and universal.

Red Head Beast Beauty

A #skull of bull, with eyes of stone,
That claims the flesh it calls its own.

Fear it more when form doth change,
A #transformation #dark and #strange
A woman with a #crimson mane,
To lure you in with #sweet disdain.

So fly that smile, that russet hair,
That hides the monster in its lair
For pleasure is her only #prayer
You are but the #prey caught there.

Murder of #crows
In lands beyond the fading veil,
Where #shadows bleed, light turns pale
A #murder stalks on wings of night
That hide their true #demonic might.

A #queen of carrion, pale and grand
Who holds a scepter in her claw-like hand
A #devil perched on #bone #white thorn
Where every sunrise #dies unborn.
