Pleased to have another new work of mine “Light,” featured in the latest edition of “The Raven’s Perch,” a wonderful, award-winning, and well-respected literary zine. It’s a piece of creative non-fiction, falling in the world between story and scenario, poetry and prose. Enjoy.

Beautiful prose, and you’re right, akin to poetry. Lovely story, lovely imagery, nice photo to seal the deal – though I did miss seeing you with Oscar.
