Demo: Poems E.L. JAMES

Demo: Poems E.L. JAMESMoving through shades of darkness and light, Charlie Smith captures a refracted view of a disturbed, disintegrating world. Demo explores landscapes both natural and urban, probing the places where the two overlap. Its narrator is at once wanderer and witness, living among streets where flowers are covered with dust and smells of Mexican food and Chinese cooking fill the air. The poet finds a resurgence of life in the ruins, reminding us once again

whenever and wherever you want to go

No social media at all

self-confidence

el rey de Gondolin

Growing up "in the closet" tends to produce a sort of double identity

Are you craving a cocktail but not the alcohol

Su novio quiere alejarle de sus amigos para siempre

No hagas más p*ndejadas

Baudelaire

Linh is ripped from her arms--and Hằng is left behind in the war-torn country

and his heart

so you can acknowledge and finally heal your pain
