Below are excerpts from the 2017 edition of Ballyhoo:
Gold- McKenzie Oliver
love is patient love is kind
it is selfless it trusts it hopes
it is difficult to define
it is a philosopher’s stone
an impossible union
never known by the alchemists
hidden away in buried labs
it is a purification
a transmutation
of a base element to a noble one
and it pools in the heart
with the bright unbearable heat
of molten gold
The Golden Gate Bridge - Aubry Poulin
Crimson spires pierce the cloud-line
Hovering above the suspended cottony vapour
Conquering the gate
King of the mists
