Read more "You"“I think as an artist, to become an artist, you have to love yourself so much. Then, you have to find someone; You have to find someone who loves you even more…” He said after I questioned love. And I thought. I sunk in my thoughts. Thought upon thought of all the things that I […]
Read more "Love and Art"The world moves in rhythmic Time. Everything has a pulse, a tempo, a beat. Like a heart. Your heart. I found mine skipping along side it with my hand in yours. I felt it in your fingertips. I heard it upon your chest. I crawled inside. I danced with you. Though I was out […]
Read more "Rhythmic Time"I write romantic things for privileged women who call themselves girls much passed their girlhood. They read with me. They stare at the make-up on their faces.

Read more "I am Christmas Morning"I walk the edge of the crowd watching for cracks in the pavement like a child. And like a child, I stare at the ostentatious drunkery that dances around me. I convince myself that I am within myself and outside of everything else. I tell stories in my head about the people I see and […]
Read more "Hope for Love is My River of Slime"I listen as he talks. His hands move in sync with his mouth. His fingers and his voice dance together in perfect modulation.
