Favorite Quote:
A career is wonderful, but you can&#039;t curl up with it on a cold night. <br /> Marilyn Monroe <br /> <br /> Fiction is the truth inside the lie. <br /> Stephen King <br /> No, it&#039;s not a very good story - its author was too busy listening to other voices to listen as closely as he should have to the one coming from inside. <br /> Stephen King

Out it streams
from my breaching core
as I pen down longing words
write lines that seek rhyme

in pace with
all that’s around
and crawling inside

the very dimensions
of past and future times
in one endlessly transforming being

or am I mistaken
is such not there and is this I
just a burp, scrap

then, for a brief moment yet
?a finger on the pain of estrangement?
this feel I’ve had
