poems here and there. Also, I am the founder and editor of Verse-Virtual, the best online poetry journal in the world.

the pain of it
is unbearable
when you're
here
but when you're
there it changes —
you get to a
greater place —
you understand
and remember the
old truth —
that you will be as
you were at first —
you will be of Of —
and as your
temporary
garments
fall off —
and as you come
closer To —
you are no longer
the same way as
you were —
and the pain is
beyond This —
and
Was
is
not
anymore
Come times when talk is out of place —
And words are of no use —
And silence is the only choice
To make — that makes any sense —
When anxiety marks your days
And no one speaks the truth —
The soul itself becomes your voice
And everyone listens —
