John Sweet
the fine art of fading away
or to be lost somewhere in
the upstate desert with your dying horse
and your cup of sand
to be 25 & staring down the
barrel of the rest of your life,
and then to be 40
50
to waste your entire life believingthere will ever be a
number with more meaning
than zero

He is a firm believer in writing as catharsis, and in the continuous search for an unattainable and constantly evolving absolute truth. His latest poetry collections include Heathen Tongue (2018 Kendra Steiner Editions) and A Flag on Fire Is a Song of Hope (2019 Scars Publications).
