"I used to think that it was terrible that life was so unfair. Then I thought, what if life were fair, and all of the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So now, I take great comfort in the genreal hostility and unfairness of the universe." -- Marcus Cole, Babylon 5

Most of my work is going to be poetry. I go from very simplistic styles to very non-confomist styles. So enjoy reading. Sooner or later (once I finish with them) I will post some of my short stories and other works up here as well. Asuming I'm ever happy enough with them to call them even remotely done of course.

Contrary to popular belief I actually am a guy and just trying to make my way through nursing school. I also happen to be a geek (big suprise right?), or at least I've never been one of the "in crowd" as it were; seeing as I play computer games, D&D, go for swing dance lessons when my budget can swing them, and of course write poetry for fun and as an emotional or mental release. And yes, for those of you who are stuck on the definitions of geek as defined by the Oxford English Dictionary and not by more modern terms of geek, I still do think that I am indeed a geek.

Oh yeah, all my poetry is original and thereby copyrighted to me. Urm... feel free to ask to use it someplace but please don't just steal it. Thanks much.

12. Jealous reviews
Warning this is exceedingly depressing. It's also not for the light hearted. It's my attempt at a fictional scene in my head.

16. Nice Guy's Foley reviews
Story of my life it seems. This was writen more as a form of release and not really directed toward anyone in particular. This is also unfortunately true it seems, having experienced this myself and watched it happen to friends repeatedly.

27. My Arms reviews
Writen for (for lack of a better descriptor) my muse. This is based on a moment in time that is actually real, unlike most of my other poems which are gernerally just conjecture. Though it is slightly dramatized just to make a better poem.

28. Love Bind reviews
Mostly just a rant for my own sake. This one isn't one of my best works, but it's as finished as it's ever likely to get. And things have changed alot since I wrote it.

Not really sure how to discribe this one. It just kinda came out of me while I was driving home one evening. I've been told that it's "visually discriptive" though. But again, more dream stuff.

39. Secret reviews
This one actuallly rhymes everything in the stanza. It's a bit dark in feel but I think the Rhyme sceme actually helps to change the way this poem is percieved, since it comes across light until the last line.
