Agonies & Bliss
Matt Nagin alone with the agonies rising up from a sorrowful gut and splashed across a tempestuous sea of memories that make me feel half of what I once was. wrap yourself around my fear and sadness hunt my courage with magic knives. limericks break nascent rainbow parameters-- hop into spiral galaxies because the doors stop when the flags fall. the children survived love will not redeem but the bliss carries on into the imperfect storm. |
