Die, FLI
Affirmative Action in any form is vicious.
No class for the rich
Now the poor get more.
Forget about the
Class. It matters not.
Affirmative in
Their ways to school the
Students coming in
The system. This is
Wrong. Economic
Status should not be
Considered in this.
The cash that is poured
And spent for the thought
To be spread around
Should be privatized.
Some of it is now.
Only the best should
Receive scholarship.
Dollars fly for FLI.
But will they see the
Truth? Merit is the
Only way to see
Worth. If a scale is
To be in place, let
It be for the best.

When Contradicting Images Reveal More Than Logic
I have a history of analyzing the utterly brilliant and soul-touching poetry of Mesh Toraskar. It seems I’m unable to read his poetry and move on with my life, as each line, each half-line, each word is so rich with imagery, references, concepts, et cetera, that it requires taking slow, quiet time to fully appreciate it all. He took quite a long break at the beginning of the year before returning in April with the stunner, “fresh terror to love.” He has published two more pieces since then, one poem and one Feast narrative, both of which I highly recommend. You’ll quickly deduce that I will recommend everything this man has written. Anyway, I promised to come back when words were no longer failing me and I did not. A lot has happened to me and it simply has not stopped, yet this is no excuse for being mute to the following beauty.
