"Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind/ And so is wing'd Cupid painted blind/

Nor hath love's mind of any judgment taste/ Wings and no eyes figure unheedy haste/

And therefore love is said to be a child/ Because in that choice he is so oft beguil'd"

--Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream--

05-21-09: My stories and poetry have been removed for various reasons. I apologize to anyone who read them or anyone who would have liked to read them. They will soon be posted elsewhere, as I find FictionPress to be an unreliable and too-big site where plagiarism abounds because the population has exploded and writing quality in the majority of authors has diminished exceedingly.
