A Poem by Brandon White. The Smell of Rain: Step into the day and into the cool air charged with rumors of rain This is what’s been missed, the gathering storm humming electric, pure and threatening What could stoke the flame of wonder like the hands of God? Do you kneel to the natural forces? […]
To get the ink flowing, sating the creative in me I could share a tale of how constellations First have to combine over the cosmos in a way that forms an image, Drawing the best of my imagination; But – as always – I’d be getting ahead of myself, After all, to begin writing, I’d […]
First, the wind gently tugs then whips her hair, wisps slashing across her nose and cheeks. She stubbornly tucks the loose strands behind her ear in vain; she refuses to tie it up. It’s been far too long that she’s been tied up, knotted, wound tight for someone else’s expectations. Tonight, at least, she stands, […]

Working through my current issues of depression, I’ve been soul-searching, attempting to put a finger on what the underlying issue is.
