About Me

I am a poetry-writing italian, hispanic denverite, raised jewish, who practices hindu meditation, studies kabbalah, never diets, craves bitter chocolate and is a typical aries incapable of balancing a checkbook or watching the news. Hobbies are difficult to name because I am constantly distracted by everything else including Zelda, reality shows and phone-gabbing. Currently am engulfed in the restaurant biz with hopes of sharing my love for the written word with teens in a high school setting.
For long time I wanted to grow up to be an amnesiac, hating how I felt like a honeybee, my tiny, fluttering heart forced to carry loads twice my weight of lies and truths, intermingling, confusing black and white thinking of nothingness and everything.

Road trip

Traveling over the mountains with a 17ft long U-haul, towing a car carrying two cats was a unique experience.  Throw in a blizzard and almost running out of gas in the desert and you've got somet...

Movies and lit on my mind: "munich"   and the novel "devil in the white city" Both express insanity and creation.  Munich set hard in my heart, pain of the loss of humanity asphyxiatin...
