LENNY – S2/EP2(Ω): Silent.

February 18, 2021 by bradleygalimore

#LENNY S2/EP2(Ω): Silent.

“It was only a matter of time.
Our existence would only exist
In this chapter of my life.
The length was still undefined.
And with words
Lost in translation,
We exist on borrowed time.
Moments stolen from my dreams…”

LENNY – S2/EP2(α): Silence…

February 18, 2021 by bradleygalimore

LENNY – S2/EP2(α): Silence…

“But I had to accept that
We were no longer
Only fucking.
I took days of distance,
Contemplated all my exes,
Reflected & Reminisced,
Made a few decisions
On how to measure…
Explain,
The depths of this experience”

REVIEW: HELP IN THE DARK SEASON – JACQUELINE SUSKIN (WRITE BLOODY PUBLISHING)

November 11, 2019 by Ronnie K. Stephens

he visceral memories echo Sharon Olds and Rachel McKibbens, taking on a confessional style that does not flinch at trauma but also makes space for complexity of loving one’s parents even as abuse continues.

REVIEW: Leah Noble Davidson – Poetic Scientifica

May 12, 2014 by Christopher Margolin

It’s mostly unique – but we’ll get to that in a bit. Davidson wants to catch you cheating.
