CHRIS GRIGLACK: Fifty Word Analytical

Odd, Submissions, ,

It’s the poetry of precision. An atypical prose through which half the story remains unwritten, but not untold. An exercise in speculative brevity where quality always trumps quantity. A minuscule door to great expanses of imagination. A strict form which flows as if oblivious to its boundaries: exactly fifty words.

CHRIS GRIGLACK: Homesick

Artistic, Submissions, Touching, , ,

From here it is just another speck of light in the sky, barely discernible from the rest, but as I look upon it I weep.

I tell myself that one day I will make it home, but I know it’s not true.

The Earth winks at me from the heavens.
