PoeTree 



Sometimes I’m terrified of my heart; of its constant hunger for whatever it is it wants. The way it stops and starts.
– Edgar Allan Poe 

::

We’ve got this hunger, see? 
These walls around 
our chambered souls, 
these syllables overflowing. 

Our veins are showing
and we need a place to 
flow. Let’s go. 

We’ll climb this oak 
and build a floor

and spill our stories 
evermore.

::

Quickly, day 26.
