Here I lye with you- you don't listen, so my words write reversed haikus I don’t need your drugs, but I do need you to know no one deserves this. I choose to let you treat me like I’m blindfolded; Still, I gift to you- Graphite and color a blank sketchbook (with this piece) Inscribed in the front. Art is all I know so this opportunity. to express it all- Has such strong power, you might never truly know… Still- I hope you do.

Dear Liam (The Gift You Never Got)
Here I lye with you- you don't listen, so my words write reversed haikus I don’t need your drugs, but I do need you to know no one deserves this. I choose to let you treat me like I’m blindfolded; Still, I gift to you- Graphite and color a blank sketchbook (with this piece) Inscribed in the front. Art is all I know so this opportunity. to express it all- Has such strong power, you might never truly know… Still- I hope you do.
5 stanza Haiku letter I wish he could have known about this. Written in his gifted sketchbook (from me) while he was finally asleep after almost overdosing on fetynol and me saving his life, over 7 hours of horror. When he woke up I went to the washroom, came back, and he was smoking it again. He overdosed- stopped breathing- I called 911, they resuscitated him and rushed him to the hospital, then before he could be released, he died. He was only 19.
