The Reality

The Reality

Jamarrez Davis, Poetry Writer February 22, 2016

Strewn across a path so wide Lay fragments that aren't easily hidden A puzzle so complex and impromptu That we never are fully able to see it To each their own because we all possess it Is this...

Crescent Wrench No. 1

Crescent Wrench No. 1

Sometimes I need you Although old and weathered with age Your beginning and latter strength has no end. You’re experiencing better days I’m reminded of you as I gaze— At the twilight Whose...

Conform

Conform

Rebecca Carroll, Staff Writer February 13, 2016

Black like an endless abyss. Round and around you go. Inch deep or inches deep? Weave or swirl out, about. Branch you sit on, still. Deep space you conform in. Out and about, you are. One day...

Me

Me

Sheldon Ransom, Staff Writer February 11, 2016

I seek love only to find love’s illusion Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, I was lured to my own sacrifice Scared of what was to come But not seeing what was done What is left of me The shell of...

Poetic Statement

Poetic Statement

Alecia Wilson, Copy Editor February 11, 2016

Constantly Moving

The Place in Your Mind

The Place in Your Mind

Rebecca Carroll, Staff Writer February 11, 2016

Fireflies dancing in the wind, Blue Autumn in a Winter Wonderland, Narnia on the other side, A storm on your side. Reality fades, Imagination becomes, Dreamland, Freedland. Open the door and experience this, Or ride the storm out? Reality soon becomes imagination, Imagination soon becomes reality.

Queen

Queen
