Favorite Quote:
My own self, at my very best, all the time.


I want to kick

and scream

and run

and hide.

And.

Well,
it’s scary.

Igniting the kerosene,
drawing the parchment,
carving the lead,
sitting.

Finding nothing,
looking ‘round,
seeing nothing.

Turning back,
running backwards,
finding nothing.

Falling forward,
with backwards progress,
laying in
nothing.

How can you be the author of your existence if you cannot write?
