Poem by Joshua Winston - Running from the city’s swarm she chased the rivers and the mountains. Finding boundaries like the roadblocks in her heart there on the floor. Threw her gaze beyond the fence like a coin in concrete fountains. She felt the wires barbs were softer than the ones she knew before.
JOSHUA WINSTON
 I never imagined I would be an artist. Never occurred to me. As a child, I dreamt of being a Rockstar musician. Perhaps being an artist was the next best thing. Art happened to me around 2013 at the age of 25. Growing up I had always been creative but lacked life experience and was ignorant to the power and magic that art possessed. It took years of poor decisions, addiction and self-imposed crisis to discover its value and impact on the human heart and soul. Once I found it, I somehow knew that it would be a part of my life for years to come.
