2016 Winner

Two Me’s

Trapped in my bubble of confusion,

the magnetic pull of tension on a full moon

when my wolverine comes out.

My mind is a room filled with all the dreams

and nightmares that are constantly exploding.

Floating atonement above my head,

pleading to you for forgiveness,

cursed by the luggage I’m carrying on

my back,

so heavy poisonous and tragic.
