Human
Condition M. Sammons
Now charging, now bursting, as t'ward all shores
waves march,
mine and my kind will keep on;
Now swift, now gone, always vast, we keep on, as seas keep
these one hundred horses all crashing;
these one hundred winds all true;
these one hundred hearts all blazing,
all flaming from flames of the sun,
whence embers unto us falling,
while, still, we keep on and keep on...

M.
Sammons was born in 1977 in Corpus Christi, TX. At the age of
fifteen he absconded from the polluted rubble of that "Shining
City By The Bay" with a view toward realizing the benefits of healthier,
less damned air. After many years of arduous travel throughout the United
States and Central America, Mr. Sammons finally settled amid the dust
and debris of Houston, TX, where he continues to write poetry and short
fiction from the squalor of his apartment in the Heights.
