I have a love for expression, and the English language. I am a fine arts major from Wisconsin and now live in the New Orleans area. I work in the Gulf of Mexico on off-shore oil platforms, and truly love my job. I am a deeply passionate and driven person.
Poetry is my outlet; this site is divine and my means for escape. You may look forward to an exorbitant amount or offerings by my pen to come. I am a new member, however, I find that I will be a life-long one. I support all who attend this site. Who genuinely have something to offer the world through word and thought. Not those who mock the process. If you do, if you find this humorous or are here to ridicule instead of critiquing, you do not belong here, so, go away. If you would like to learn more about me, feel free to contact me.
So without further ado, inspired writing to all and good luck to you!

"The only men that have seen the end of war are the dead."
~Plato~

"Sleep, those little slices of death...
how I loathe them."
~Edgar Allen Poe~

By the hair
it bore the severed member lantern-wise
pendant in hand, which look'd at us,
and said, "Woe is me."

Hell: Canto XXVIII., lines 116-119. ~Dante Alighieri~



Sometimes it's hard
to forgive someone
for the things
they have done wrong
in their life.
So I implore you,
forgive me now
for all the things
I shall do wrong.
