Challenge
We lost a lot with the passing of Chris Cornell. To many, he was a mentor, a brilliant writer; an inimitable voice. Until June 30th, this challenge is for the friends and fans to write their stories, poems, tributes: anything about him. We will be putting together a book for the Cornell family, of the posts entered, as well as making copies available for purchase, donating all proceeds to suicide prevention. In partnership with Seattle Refined, the most shared post will be read on air, and posted on seattlerefined.com.

broken pony
beautiful winged creature
beautiful
why did you
swallow those pills
why did you
delegate your bills
you tried to live (most days)
but a cage
surrounded you
and no one knew
i wish i had known you
gorgeous and alone
just like me
and Jesus Christ
wise in your own way
same as any day
i wish i had known
why did you
swallow those pills
why did you
grab that rope
i could have helped you
wash away
that rain from your
beautiful
broken body
for Chris Cornell
