Call to me with foreign tongues, Upon a melody long forgotten. That I may come wandering into these woods, We’re memories walk trails forbidden. Where trees groan with the weight of human thoughts, And shed tears upon those who dare walk beneath their bows. Cast your eyes round about broken stone and swaying grasses, As … Continue reading Whispering Wood- Michael Erickson

Parmara- Michael Erickson
Oh forgotten jewel of the sea, How long have you laid hidden on the edge of the world. Surf and tides ever pulling at your bones, Laying bare your secrets deep. With ruins tumbling into the sea, All we have are distant memories. . . . Voices sang across the sea to willing ears, Where … Continue reading Parmara- Michael Erickson
To Chimera- Michael Erickson
Lead me across these dark waters, With a sprig of yew and elder crossed upon my brow. To lands unknown am I bound, Let me forget the world I came from. Drifting upon these silent waters, As a solid ghost paddles us on. To Chimera do we drift, Past where the sun goes down. That … Continue reading To Chimera- Michael Erickson

I long to find a forgotten hole, Into which I could fall into another world. If only this world could stretch and bend, To accommodate the far reaches of my … Continue reading Rising Imagination- Michael Erickson

Where mankind were but innocent babes, Playing at the feet of folk so fair, Who’s blood was as ancient as the deepest sea. Close your eyes and smell the earth, Rich with gardens … Continue reading Close Your Eyes- Michael Erickson

I forget that not all of you know that about a year and a half ago, I co-founded a teeny, tiny publishing company with the amazing Kindra M. Austin. We made a commitment to ourselves from the start that we will only publish books that we love to read. When I say that Eric Syrdal’s … Continue reading Your Next Read (or it should be): Pantheon by Eric Syrdal
Legend’s Shame- Michael Erickson
I once forgot your name, Upon the edge of this my frosted reign. Your voice cried out from the deep, Wondering in who's arms your memories would keep. I fled upon a dragon hide, Watching our world raised by flames as hope died. And beneath the fear and rising shame, I willingly forgot your blessed … Continue reading Legend’s Shame- Michael Erickson
