HEY. IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, TELL ME AND TELL ME WHY.
yeah, i'm supposed to be yelling that. Your criticism is what i need to get better. So, give it. (like a petulant toddler on the fringes of the terrible twos)

MY quotes of the right now:
______________________________________
What a man thinks is his own business. What matters is what he does.
_John Le Carre
The Honorable Schoolboy
"A human being," Kondrashev continued, "possesses from his birth a certain essence, the nucleus, as it were, of this human being, His 'I.' And it is still uncertain which forms which: whether life forms the man or man, with his strong spirit, forms his life! Because... because he has something to measure himself against, something he can look to. Because he has in him an image of perfection which in rare moments suddenly emerges before his spiritual gaze."
_Alexander Solzhenitsyn
The First Circle
"Look, I personally believe that people seriously need skepticism. It's needed to split the rockheads. To choke the fanatical voices. But skepticism can never provide firm ground under a man's feet. And, perhaps, after all, we need firm ground."
"Give me another cigarette,"
_Alexander Solzhenitsyn
The First Circle
When we get our spiritual house in order, we'll be dead. You arrive at enough certainty to be able to make your way, but it is making it in the darkness. Don't expect faith to clear things up for you. It is trust, not certainty.
_Flannery O'Connor
Christ likes us to prefer truth to him because, before being Christ, he is truth. If one turns aside from him to go toward the truth, one will not go far before falling into his arms.
_Simone Weil
Spiritual Autobiography
so i stood up and let my freeform form free
said i'm gonna get some before they knockin out me
i don't sweat it
i let the bullshit blow in the breeze--
_Slim Kid 3 of the Pharcyde
"Runnin" off Labcabincalifornia
Everybody can be great because anybody can serve. You don't have to have college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.
_Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968)

jaunty pill on April 7, 2006
Hello.
Recently I have decided to hold a
contest as an " Invite only ". I have been reading
your poems for quite awhile and thought this
would be a good way of getting to know you better
as a writer. I would very much appreciate an entry.
It will aid in the hope to extend my commenting
on other writers , Such as yourself.
allpoetry.com/contest/1932350
Thanks for your time .
James
P.S. If you would not like your name
included on the contest list , Please IM me
and I'll remove it. I don't want to offend
anyone by this contest or make anyone
uncomfortable. -

procrastinater on November 30, 2004I just took a brief glimpse at hannahesque, she'll probably be one that I go back to a lot, but you should check out Strawberrynadir, Jauntypill, and this one poem by a friend of mine- http://allpoetry.com/Poem/919487-the rest of her stuff is good but not nearly like this.
