Of the piece featured here, Sam says:
‘When I was writing my Natural City collection, my intentions were to fire everything I had into it from flash fictions to short pieces of poetry told from different angles and perspectives.
The fictional city of Hainesville took much of its inspiration from my life experiences growing up on the streets of pre-Giuliani New York City -A thriving city of derelicts, criminals, lovers, hustlers and ordinary people just getting by.
Wonder.Years. is a collage of images coupled with my feelings of nostalgia, regret and the faded sense of belonging, that all summarize "A life once lived".
