Paranoia, a Poem

The prospect of coincidence, the power of imagination. The dread of its meaning propagates angst, while the symbolism is mercilessly distorted through Machiavellian avenues into perturbing conviction. And so the pendulum swings, inevitably back into the place it was supposed to … Continue reading

Gratitude, a Poem
