"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."


midnight street lamps
laughing people
dark unwanted rooms
a church's steeple
where is my soul
where are the stars
the sun blinds me
chasing cars
counting crows

neon lights
empty bars
sam adam's lite
naked scars
where is the moon
its gone tonight
four walls in a room
forget to fight
friend your foes

anticipation
rains outside
personification
as God cries
where is a heart
where is a feeling
get up and start
fall down reeling
highs and lows

stranded libraries
blank pages
imagination
body ages
how old am I
id like to know
my o my
a broken rose

meaningless laughter
depressng vacations
feeling after
heart vaccinations
how far have we come
train moving backwards
some are numb
lack of words
poetry and prose
