Everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind; nothing was gained under the sun.              
                                                      ~Ecclesiastes 2: 11

  Myself huh...? I'll be to the point because I know you probably don't have time to read my life story (not that is very eventful anyway)
  My name is Kate, and I'm your typical 'I don't give a damn it's too cold' Masshole New Englander. I'm a short, skinny, Irish/ Italian (Catholic) girl. My biggest fault is that I find it absolutely hysterical when people fall down or slip on the ice or something. If they get hurt it's even funnier. My first loves include God, my friends/ family, softball, chocolate, my 20 gauge, the NRA, and the New York Yankees. Yeah, that's right-! A born- bred Masshole AND a Yankee fan. We do exist you know, and if you don't like it, bite me!
  I like all kinds of music. 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's rock. The British Invasion. Underground rock. mewithoutYou kinda' stuff. Classical. Musicals. Hardcore. I love it all!!
  Outside of music, I the crap hole city I live in (number 19 worst city in the US WooHoo-!); the class of 2007, thunderstorms, pretty New England roads, the Cape, and snow during Christmas. And, obviously, poetry. My poetry style really depends on my mood, sometimes it rhymes and sometimes it doesn't. Such is life.  

                  "If the world were perfect, it wouldn't be" ~Yogi Berra

"There is a wisdom that is woe; but there is a woe that is madness.
And there is a Catskill eagle in some souls that can alike dive down into the blackest gorges, and soar out of them again and become invisible      in the sunny spaces. And even if he forever flies within the gorge, that  gorge is in the mountains; so that even in his lowest swoop the mountain eagle is higher still than other birds upon the plain, even though they  soar."     ~Herman Mevile, from: Moby Dick
 

                                   ...Will the misty master break me?
                                   Will the key unlock my mind?
                                   Will the following footsteps catch me?
                                   Am I really dying...?
                                           ~Pink Floyd, 'Julia Dream'

...You'd only make the softest sound,
  like sugar pouring into tea.
  Darling let yourself pour down
  and dissolve into the Love
  who revealed Himself there quietly to me.
  (Jesus have mercy on us.)
         ~mewithoutYou, 'The Cure For Pain'
 
                                 
                           ...Oh the gangster looks so frightning
                               with his luger in his hand
                                 when he gets home to his children
                                  he's a family man
                                     But when it comes to the nitty gritty
                                    he can shove in his knife
                                   Yes he really looks quite religious
                                 He's been an outlaw all his life...
                                       ~Rolling Stones, 'Jigsaw Puzzle'

     
  '...This is the way the world ends. This is the way the world ends.
                      This is the way the world ends
                            Not with a bang,
                             but a whimper'
                              ~T.S Elliot
