The Nu• Show poetry

My name is Nik, from small-town Jeffersonville, Indiana. I dig the night, the moon, fire, clouds, rain, snow, trees, driving, movies, dancing, coffe, cigarettes, chemicals on my tounge, plants wrapped in paper, and powder in those little zip-lock baggies.


Music is my life, my passion. I am a bassist. Some of my favorite bands/influences are:

The AP Fam so far:

Rose Blood 87, my AP sister. Beautifully descriptive poems, with some that will make a chill crawl up your spine.

Lunar Still, my AP brother.. He's an amazing writer, with alot of historically accurate songs/poems.

" I see myself as a huge fiery comet, a shooting star. Everyone stops, points up and gasps 'Oh look at that!' Then - whoosh, and I'm gone... and they'll never see anything like it ever again, and they won't be able to forget me - ever. "
- Jim Morrison

There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors.
