About Me

I believe that all people are innately good and they do evil things because they are hurting. My goal therefore is to try to heal myself and others. I'm so very grateful for the loving people in my life who help me in my goals and forgive my failures.You can read some of my poetry here on my blog which will eventually be compiled into the first of many books I hope to write. I also occassionally produce and/or perform in a variety of formats including stage, film and television. For 678 weeks I ran Faceboyz Open Mike Night. Below are some quotes related mostly to said open mike. I am now producing Pennies Open Mike. For information on this go to www.artstars.org (register for free), click, "shows and events" then click, "Pennies Open Mike"I don't allow the audience to heckle the performers or the performers to attack the audience. I do this so that even the quietest of voices can be heard."Consistently entertaining" Neil Strauss, The New York Times "Just plain outrageous" James Hirsch, The Wall Street Journal "Comics Jeff Ross and Jim Gaffigan and performance artists like soybomb are all veterans of this stage" New York Daily News "If Andys Warhol and Kaufman were just arriving in new york, chances are they would head straight for lower east side open mic scene" New York Magazine "A wildly satisfying variety show" Paper Magazine "Almost anything goes, and that's the fun of it" New York Press, Best of Manhattan (best of awards 1997 and 2003) "Nothing has stopped FACEBOYZ OPEN MIC..."

Again

You touched my heart, deeply too.Your best friend said, I touched you.You took your life.Now gone from this strife.I'll never do what you have done.All of this pain seems so wrong.But with tear staine...

When I can't look at myself.When I don't want to know.When I can't face my fears.Rarely will I find what I seek.Always must I love what I have.7/16/07

Money

Not one moment of life will ever return.Watching clouds and sunsets.Wishing on a star.In pursuit of money, every day something must be gained.To follow the Tao,every day something is dropped.The sensi...
