The reason we go to poetry is not for wisdom$$$ but for the dismantling of wisdom.

Observation without evaluation is the highest form of intelligence.

I believe that people believe what they believe they believe.

Sometimes life seems like a poorly designed cage within which man has been sentenced to be free.

When you love something it loves you back in whatever way it has to love.

But I was used to finding something deadly in things that attracted me; there was always something deadly lurking in anything I wanted$$$ anything I loved.

You can still function as a living ruin.

The heart is forever inexperienced.

I am here to live out loud.

We must constantly build dykes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.
