I've learned an ocean of valuable knowledge from a very few valuable rainstorms.(It was you.)

About Me

"So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun."-Into the Wild

Old words for old feelings for old surprises.

I slowly unsheath your body, Like smooth charcoal slivers, To bare our next intention. You sketch outlines of stories and lost prodigies On my marble skin. If ever two elements were molded like clay, ...

Your honor, the defendant pleads 'guilty'....

Lack of sleep is known To drain the human body; I can't cease to move... Every hour scoffs at my impatience The day's visage so promisingly wrong So many thoughts forbidden... So many eyes to judge......
