“Amity was the cold, steady gaze of a double-barreled shotgun, bearing down. She was the glint of pinprick pupils gleaming through a night-lit window, the rythmic blast of a door left banging in a gale wind. The slither of a flesh-flayed limb beneath a bed skirt, a welcome note etched in blood. Amity's forever was reflected in the glimmering edge of an ax, in the rushing footprints, the twitching tail, the brushing fingertips of a zephyr, a cipher, a wordless, formless shape.”

“Sonnet of Struggle The struggle of one, Is the struggle of all. Denying freedom to one, Is the beginning of collective fall. Lasting happiness for one, Is in the happiness of community. Even one soul without serenity, Is a world without serenity. The anguish of one, Casts shadow on collective mind. Even if one person falls behind, It is the fall of all humankind. Togetherness is another name for progress, Together forever, either as lovers or ashes.”
