“There is great danger in hastily throwing out what is undigested…For sheep do not hastily throw up the grass to show the shepherds how much they have eaten, but, inwardly digesting their food, they produce it outwardly in wool and milk. Thus, therefore, do you not make an exhibition before the ignorant of your principles, but of the actions to which their digestion gives rise.”
— Epictetus, The Enchiridion

Apparitions I
Light bulbs kindled
Their honey rays
On cherry veneer
I watch as our shadows
Awaken from slumber 
As dawn cascades
Into an icicle glow
Like the solemn light
Of a vintage projector 
Needle and wax
Leak through the cracks
Soft words of
Leonard Cohen 
Whisper through the halls

Ode to Autumn
Rolling hills
Petaled with golden embers
Surrendered to the asphalt
Marmalade light
Whispered through
The clouded panes of
Oak shingled homes
And the bark was
Cloaked in mist
Like the breath
Of a ghost
As pearl white
As the looming sky
That hung above my head
When dusk grew sullen
The earth became still
And the Autumn crow
Took it's final flight
