why write?

I have to write what I hear in my head, what I dream in my sleep, what my bones ache to express.

My poems tell stories of strength, love, regret, disobedience, loss, hope, redemption, and whatever whispers.

—Cindy B. Stevens

Edgar Boulai

 

I received the name “Edgar Boulai” in a dream in 2015, along with this very short scene.

 

Edgar Boulai

 

the grill wears a wound

matter of pride

 

my compadre nervous

pistol bullet flies wide

 

pierces the grill work

of Edgar Boulai
