Lovely Wreck

by Katie Seliger

Spider weaves a web

Out of beautiful passion

And small tender hands

Then temptation destroys it

I stand in a lovely wreck

Drifting Into a New Darkness

by Timothy Newport

As I drift, my body's not whole,

My mind is wandering forward

As my body decays and so does my soul,

But I keep pushing, forcing myself onward

There is only darkness all around me,

I have forced myself into this,

But darkness reminds us where light can be,

And only I can lead myself to bliss.

The reason for me being here,

The reason for all my torment,

Is that I took all the love and cheer

From someone I convinced I loved; now they lament
