About Me
- Steven Marty Grant
- Rancho Mirage, California, United States
- Steven Marty Grant is a hospitality sales professional living and working in the Coachella Valley after ten years in New York City. A former journalist, musician and slacking underachiever, his poems have appeared in The Writer, The Ampersand (&) Review, The Melancholy Dane, Spring Harvest, VVC Drama & English Literary Journal, Notes Magazine, Sleep-Snort-Fuck, Drink This Cola, Vivid Online Journal, The Flask and Pen and any web site with low enough standards to accept his work. His first volume of poetry "Another Hotel Room" is currently available at Amazon.com. Steven graduated from a school you’ve never heard of and had so many majors that even he is confused as to what his degree is in. He is married to a very patient woman and has the most perfect daughter any man could ask for.

The first half imposes reflection. How many of us are living with souls that died long ago? The second half creates a great visual that drives home the depth of the former. A big ole empty soul. Wow. I have experience with M&Ms so I shiver at the thought of a hollow peanut M&M. :
Really like the choice of line break between rot/leaving. The pause there is significant to me. Love to stop by again, looking forward to that next post.
Can't believe I haven't read this one. Like the comparison.
