LIfe's Journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in

About Me

I'm 5'4" and I'm a poetic teddy bear...I love hockey, I'm adventerous and I'm willing to try anything at least once. I generally like everyone but pretentious people, racists and anyone who would make fun of anyone with a handicap, physical or mental...I'm a recently published author of a book of poetry that will be due out in December or next Summer. The book is called "Through the eyes of a broken man" and it features my own poetry. If you'd like a sample of my poetry just ask me and i'll send you a link. I grew up with a large Fillipino family...I have 5 brothers and one sister, 2 in laws, 2 nieces and 3 nephews...All of us know how to cook and clean, and we're very family oriented but know how to loosen up when the time is right. In my spare time I play roller hockey as a goalie (cause goalies rock like that), I write and read poetry, I like doing fishtails in my Chevy Silverado when it rains hard and I like to cook for my family. I'm looking for people who i can be friends with and hang out with them from time to time. If you'd like to get to know me more just drop me a line and I'll answer any of your questions you may have about me. And this I believe personifies who i amLayout made by Sue

My Interests

"Five On Three" They come rushing in In a mad dash they break through Outnumbered and outgunned I stare them down My comrades stand their ground But they are no match for the oncoming surge I watch their eyes, following where they go From one person to the next The vulcanized bullet inches towards me I’m the last line of defense now A lone defender against the evil empire My armor and paddle they protect me Suddenly they fire Aiming to get past me and through to their goal I am impervious to their attacks Bring it on, you won’t get past me Odd man rushes don’t scare me Because I’m the invincible, impenetrable goalieRobert N.

I'd like to meet:

Other poets and anyone who's into the arts! And if he was still alive I'd like to meet Dimebag Darrel of Pantera...RIP Dimebag.also i'd like to meet the guy who had the balls to do this!

Music:

pretty much anything...rap not a big fan of but i'll listen. mainly it's country, metal, classic rock or swing/big band.

want to revamp this but not sure how

"Destroy" I want to destroy something beautiful, Cripple it and make it ugly, To make it ugly as I am. Shattered all the mirrors in the house, So I could guard myself from my imperfections. And amongs...

this is for the fallen ones

"Being Their Tongue" When death takes away the ones we love It hurts from within every inch of us. Feeling like a part of us is empty As we come to the realization That we will never wake to their smi...

some ramblings of a brown eyed boy

"Like myself" There are others out there, Just like me who don't realize, How important they are. Others like myself, Who bear the signatures of sorrow Upon their bodies. We wear our wounds secretly, ...
