The Island

by Geollyfish August 24, 2010

One day I will find the island I was born to be king of Population zero and not rising any time soon Somewhere off the coast of somewhere unheard of It waits for me But I’m not ready I lost my birthright as I tumbled down the hill of innocence into the burning forest of [...]

recurring failure

by Geollyfish January 21, 2009

Running through landscapes that have never existed, occaisionally hiding in a place I vaguely remember A parking structure in Phoenix or the pile of broken desks and chairs behind my high school gym Lights turn on, shots go off, and it’s back to running I work my way into the middle of a crowd to [...]
