Monetize
by Kevin Schroeder

How does one monetize an emotion?
Trading raw truths in a marketplace of feelings,
Where every vulnerability wears a price tag,
Every confession a coin.

I lay bare my joy’s
The laughter that dances like sunlight,
And the sorrows, dark as night,
Offering them up as wares crafted from my soul.

Who’s Gonna Save Your Soul?
by Kevin Schroeder

In a smoky room, where the shadows play,
You’re searching for direction, lost along the way.
The devil grins, whispering sweet lies,
Promising glory wrapped in disguise.

Who's gonna save your soul tonight?
The preacher with his holy light?
The politician with his silver tongue?
Or the celebrity, forever young?
Is it the singer with a heart full of pain?

Let Go of Your Fear
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice

Let Go of Your Fear

Allow yourself to drop the armor that surrounds you...
Allow yourself to go deep inside to your core...

Let go of your fear...

No one can cause you harm unless you allow them to do so...
You are truly in control of your own life if you simply allow your Higher Power to give you direction...

Different Version
by Kailey Norris

I long for a different version of myself.
A me who hasn’t made a mistake,
A me who was a better friend, a better child.
I long for a me who is social,
A me without flaw,
A me without a bad experience

A Stroke of Hypocrisy
by Kimani Hare

Destruction in the name of the Arts,

Hypocrisy eclipses the creators, for their tools burn home.

Fossil fuels for abstracts and Deforestation for novels

Sisyphus laughs at their sophomoric efforts,

For humanity blinds us under the guise of protection.

Welzijn
by Mario Odekerken

Een zachte bries die door de ziel kan strelen,
een lach die zonder woorden veel verklaart,
de rust in 't hart,bevrijd van donk're spelen,
waar liefde als een stille kracht aanvaart.
Niet rijkdom,noch de roem die snel kan vervelen,
maar de vrede die de mens als kostbaar spaart.
Wie naar zichzelf durft te kijken zonder schalen,
zal in het diepst het ware welzijn halen.

The Bus Stop
by Michael J. Nappi

A bitter youth boards a yellow bus
Impatient, petulant child, hardened by hurt
Each rule a challenge... accepted... defeated
Malicious moves, drawing blood first

School ends... lessons continue
Building character, life and family
Settled into (or for) what is (or was) in front of him
Same stuff different day (life is what you make it)
