“In the Dark” by Matthew Maichen

“Night terrors never take gray souls

But target ones of vibrant color or

Is it the other way around? Does the

Dark create the stars?”

 

Honored to be able to publish a poem by Matthew Maichen, editor of The Metaworker. I’ve had the great pleasure of seeing Matthew perform live in Oceanside, and his spoken word is some of the most powerful I’ve ever seen in person. Let’s meet him:

“Matthew Machen is the Editor-In-Chief of The Metaworker, a literary blog at: http://www.themetaworker.com. He can almost always be found at Glassless Minds in Oceanside. When he isn’t writing poetry or working on his novel, he’s job-hunting.”
