Mozart Guerrier

Sum of my ancestors struggle. I am!

About Me

"i often want to threaten the universe/ write a suicide note/ graffiti it unto a shuttle/ & shoot it into a black hole/ just to show I'm serious/ perhaps, fiddle a blade/ across my throat & whis/ per prayers into wind/ to a god that doesn't exist/ just so the one that does/ gets pissed off"/...... time to stop pretending i'm alone

....other days i ride trains from end to end. eat swedish fish. fight my phobia of sleep. follow white rabbits into dark holes. collect&recycle cigarette butts in between concrete sidewalks....&seduce hummingbirds w/ kool aid.

<[go to the blog box just above this one...it's a better picture of what i write. thank you.>>
Mozart is a Haitian (American) performance poet from philadelphia, currently a senior psychology major/creative writing minor at Mansfield University. His poems are powerful,well-crafted and capture audiences on contact.Performance/Writing resume available upon request(i can send you stuff of what i've did. no reason to bore you with a laundry list now, if my reputation precedes me...don't believe...let me confirm).
