Toast Despair (Poetry Plate Series)

A digital print of poetry set on a backdrop of a golden lit wine glass.

"Let us toast despair, ring the bells of the hellions on night watch through the valley of death, let us dance -- be loud and unhinged, let us live -- so we may say when we die - the pits of this life all scattered with ashes -- a past that burned past us -- singed by the sun, oh Icarus -- our prodigal run - a hope that eloped with our fears - what's left us here -- and from torn pages of futures -- that never we'll write -- but tonight -- Tonight -- Let me tell you - that abyss -- crackles with life"
