Poems From My Verse Novel Series
The Nowhere Trilogies
Birth of a Damage Bandit
The only
one who profits from
rickety
rockets are
the ones who have already
sold souls to demons.
—Prime Clan Sandman
Mr. Robinson
Bo Jangles
was the best legend
we never
knew. He gained
influence; tried to turn the
tables; see, he knew.
The good wealth
could do. They knew too.
Time turned him
Into a
minstrel fable; he tried to warn
us; power and wealth,
Strengthen and
enable. He tried
to show us
how to play
the table. Time made him
a clown; a fable.
Time gathered
together, took full
assault on
his legend
showing us who owns it when
we leave the stables.
—Prime Clan Sandman.
The RocketMan’s Plans
Those dusty
streets allow me to
get lost in
all of my
rickety rockets. Repairs
out there will cost me.
An attempt
to steer me clear from
my nearing
Destiny.
I’m getting so close, I must
fix the rest of me.
Rickety
Rocket man plans on
testing me.
I know this;
so I made the recipe;
he won’t best me.
—Nowhere Boy
