It is fun to be in the same decade with you. (Roosevelt to Churchill)

Poetry is my life$$$ my postmark$$$ my hands$$$ my kitchen$$$ my face.

Be confident$$$ not certain

It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work at it.

Sailors on a becalmed sea$$$ we sense the stirring of a breeze.

I like the idea of someone else's love safely sealed in a song or a book.

I do not laugh; I do not cry<br>I'm sweating out the will to die.<br>My past is sliding down the drain<br>I soon will be myself again.

In a dark time$$$ the eye begins to see<br>I meet my shadow in the deepening shade...<br>Dark$$$ dark my light$$$ and darker my desire.

Focus equals feeling.

The imagination loses vitality as it ceases to adhere to what is real.
