Excerpt from MFAU

A broad landscape revealed

Rounding a corner to be blasted with light

Its beauty is cracked

Chasing the horizon; futile

Gabriela has found no resolution

And upon bestowing massive magnificence

Answers fly further away

An Excerpt from 'How Edward's Hand Felt,' MFAU

The stem emerges two inches above the world

Nowhere near any area that should allow it

Elle considers with a fingertip

Wild life growing in a desolate place

Where bloem are scarce, the only plant around

Surviving from underground

Reason of how is unattainable

Reason of good and bad, immaterial

Her eyes penetrated Edward

She plucked the stem without flinching

And he watched her toy with it pointlessly

Finally tearing it into itty-bitty pieces
