Wow, what a pleasure it is to be able to share other’s works! After all, it is the entire purpose this column
serves. But I will not leave you without at least one more treat. I hope you enjoy this piece, as it came from
my heart during a moment of pain.
CORROSION
By Shawn Joseph
Like acid eating away at the rusty barrel
My mind dissolves my mental state
Reality fades into biting falls
Echoing my failures down the hall
Binding my dreams
Chasing what seems
Maybe
One day
I'll feel again
Full of fire
Sallow and die
The blade slips through
Shaving the memories
Feeding the dew
Sleepless nights
Call me home
Back beyond
Where my demon's roam
That is all for now my chaotic friends. I hope you have enjoyed this month’s issue! If you feel the urge, check

We are currently writing our second album, and until we release it, you can download our first one for free
on our personal website! Drop in and let us know what you think! More importantly, send me your art so I
may expose you to the world! May 2015 bring your dreams within reach, or give you the strength to reach
for them anyways!
