Poetry Day: Negative Man

Posted on January 2, 2025 by Charles Yallowitz

Poetry Day: Narcolepsy Queen

Posted on December 26, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

(This is not about anyone specific.  Just noticed way back how there are couples where one person would fall asleep at all times.  ‘Narcolepsy Queen’ had a better ring than ‘Narcolepsy King’ too.) You slept while the movie played. Leaving … Continue reading →

Poetry Day: Mylrix Falls

Posted on December 19, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

(No reason for the picture.  This is more of a prophecy I hope to use in a future trilogy that explains the reason Windemere’s magic works the way it does.  Almost forgot it existed though.  A side note is that … Continue reading →

Poetry Day: My Sanguine Beast

Posted on December 5, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Posted on November 21, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Poetry Day: Monster City

Posted on October 24, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

(A fun little poem about a city living on top of a giant.  Pretty sure this stemmed from the first ‘God of War’ game where you reach a temple on a Titan’s back.) Metropolis up high On a monster’s flattened … Continue reading →

Poetry Day: Mind’s Eye

Posted on October 17, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

(Not 100% sure where I was going here.  Possibly about how we examine and interpret the world through our own senses and mind.  Yet, we can run into people who view things differently.  Do we all share the same reality … Continue reading →

Poetry Day: Mind Crumble

Posted on October 10, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

(Spiraling into darkness and insanity.  Yeah . . . I don’t know how many of these poems I have, but it’s certainly a common theme.  That being said, it would be terrifying to be trapped in your own mind and … Continue reading →
