About Me

Laroue. (La-roo)
That's me. I'm just a girl caught between extreme polar opposites. Somewhere between a country-bumpkin and a city-slicker. Someplace between an overexcitable, distracted five-year-old and a meditative buddah. Caught between extreme fantasy and cold, quiet rationality. Riding the fence between airhead and genius. Somersaulting betwixt insightful and naive.
I am GROWING like vines....
I am a poet, and I love hats.
"POETRY IS THE GIFT OF THE SOUL TO THE TACTILE WORD, MUSIC ON PAPER, EMOTIONS IN PRINT, VISION FROM A SCRIBBLING HAND."
November 12th, 2007
Los Angeles consumes me,
With all it's glitter and it's dirt.
I want to wipe away the paint from the tired faces...
Of people trying to become something intangible....
Take soap to the dirty fingernails of the homeless man,
?Who ate my fried chicken for dinner last night.
?I want to slow down the maniacal carnival of the industry-dance,
?So it falls in tune with the way the ocean purrs at night,
?And the quiet hum of the mountains under my feet,
And the soft, warm way it feels to see your face in the morning.

SPARTA

On being frustrated with the LA traffic.....

The concrete hugs the earth Too tightly here, In an urban sprawl of bondage - New chains already rusting With the imposed filth Of traffic-laden immobility. This is so far removed, From my wis...
