Gauntlet Of Time


Gauntlet Of Time

 

Calling me forward

taking me back

Promising nothing

stepping over the cracks

 

A doorway awaits

 threshold of pain

Whose entrance is crumbling 

—to cross heaven gained

 

(Villanova University: December, 2023)

 

 

Over The Rainbow

 

No difference between

good and bad

when eyes

are caught between

What matters most

and matters least

the treasure

—sight unseen

 

(Villanova University: December, 2023)
