Don't let love make You lifeless. Run hard, Breath harder. Burn, like bowls Of sweet grass smoked. Flower, Find yourself fiercely. Do not look back, Embrace the day, always, Celebrate the Change it brings.

Ever have something so inane pop into your head that all you could k was, "Where did that come from?" It's the middle of the night and I'm wide awake, so I have decided to amuse myself by inflicting this drivel on you. It popped into my mind on ...

I don't usually share a lot of my poetry because it can be a bit dark and personal, but I really enjoy writing poetry to channel my thoughts and feelings. Here is one of my poems: My mind is a beast that can't be tamed, with thoughts that try to eat...

This is what happens when I'm overtired and can't sleep. I start to compose parody poems about work. Thought I would purge by inflicting the first draft incomplete pieces on you lovely people. (I'm also mean when I haven't had enough sleep.) The ...
