thank you! however, i think you will find the poem a bit of a major downer or disturbing even. but, that's what's in my mind that wants out. :/

well, i'm glad it produced a reaction, that's main point, other than it being therapeutic.

i expect people don't expect these poems from me. just lately they've been popping up in my head and i start writing things down and then i rewrite it at least 10 times and if i'm satisfied, i'll post it, or at least not tear it up and trash it.

thank you, i think i'm a much better writer than visual artist. but what are you going to do with that!?!

i know you're a good writer from the interviews you do (which are indeed very long!) i would love to write a screen play. do you ever expect to pursue that?

all my life my goal has been to publish a successful novel. i don't think it's going to happen. i was so sure when i was young. it's hard cause my father wrote 9 books and endless papers for journals, edited lots of other people's manuscripts and help decide if they should be published or not, etc. he wrote only non-fiction--history, of course, but the hard work he put into it. there were books he wrote that took years. so i think to myself..i wish...

what sorts of subjects do you write about? as you may have noticed, all my good poetry is about my child abuse or mental illness. not fun happy things. but... ya know.

Yeah, the long format is definitely a trademark of mine WOW! That's actually quite impressive about your dad though! Part of my job is a "Script Doctor" for a few directors and producers. It'd be nice if one day I could get one made of my own (an actual film of course ). My scripts are almost always based on "paradise corrupted". And I've only EVER written myself into a story ONCE. It's for an ongoing Speculative Fiction that I've worked on for the last 7 years called "The Vagabonded". Which came in at 287 pages
