North Star poet on Sun FM 91.3

Poetry by Life in the City author mentioned on Sonoma Sun FM 91.3.

During an exclusive interview with Shane Charles Sourgose, Some Like It Hot! host, Diana Dawn, read an excerpt from Sourgose's poetry compilation, Sonnets, Songs & Soliloquies.

Alongside illustrator, Jamieson Romney, Sourgose also discussed his recent trip to South America through Suriname and development of his forthcoming espionage fiction, The Professional, Cleaner and Lookout.

Poem read by Dawn during the November 1st 2011 interview is provided below:

Mirror, Mirror

Reflect me the vision I wish to see

The one that brings me to tears

We know all too well which one

Me on to one side

That person on the other

We meet at the middle

And vow to commit sin for eternity

No other could nonetheless finish

Unless one lays thee bitter sweet end

Yet until that very day

There will be no such departure

Of thy heart

Nor of thou soul

As such embodiment only a station

In which we thus take

Pending that time we must go

Yet find one another all again

Though not in this reverie

But in alternative realm

Although all is forgotten

We, will not

And may we never

Libra & Sagittarius

You are one of balance

And I am one to seek

You will build our home

As I’ll fulfill your needs

Venus, you are ruled

Charming yet seductive

This Jupiter’s a fool

Intense and not reluctant

For you will grace my flames

With winds that shape desire

And my fire to be your reign

As your air will take us higher

My charisma & thirst for adventure

Will delight your nervous pleasure

Your beauty & cultural knowledge

Will storm my given weather

You challenge my intelligence

I encourage your deliverance

You make me creative

I make you spontaneous

This match is vastly valued

And hard to come between us

I may not be as sensitive

For that I will attempt to earn

And you may not be so forward

For that you will attempt to learn

As when we are together

Life seems all the better

Not one of sorrow, hatred or concern

But one of such reward…

Excerpt from Sonnets, Songs & Soliloquies; a poetry piece by Life in the City author Shane Charles Sourgose.

Sourgose met with members of WASH UNICEF, Stichting FOB and Suriname Red Cross, respectively, in regards to humanitarian and environmentalist work.

Below is an excerpt from Shane Charles Sourgose's forthcoming piece Sonnets, Songs & Soliloquies:

Cross the Exit
Apocalyptic sun

Red with blood

Dreary are you clouds

Forsaken ones

Marvel at our end

Glorious flood

Nocturnal days setting

Fortunate ones

Thee chariot awaits

To embark a waltz

Through dancing flames

Consumed

Unrelenting their existences faults

For judgment has come

Absorbing such scenery

This recital to find

Marks the end

I beseech thee beside me

Mystify all amends

Life in the City author reading Dirty Little Secrets...
