Author has written 35 stories for General, Life, Thriller, Love, Humor, Supernatural, Nature, and Family. Hey there! I mostly write poetry, and sometimes it turns out okay. I really love it, though. I may be posting other fiction on here in the future, it just depends on how busy I am. Hope you enjoy! Please leave reviews and tell me what you think! I'd love to get any kind of input or just a hello. Some of my favorite quotes about poetry: Poetry is just the evidence of life. If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash. ~Leonard Cohen Poetry is a mirror which makes beautiful that which is distorted. ~Percy Shelley, A Defence of Poetry, 1821 Poetry should... should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost a remembrance. ~John Keats The poet doesn't invent. He listens. ~Jean Cocteau The only problem Perhaps no person can be a poet, or can even enjoy poetry, without a certain unsoundness of mind. ~Thomas Babington Macaulay God is the perfect poet. ~Robert Browning Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance. ~Carl Sandburg Poetry is the synthesis of hyacinths and biscuits. ~Carl Sandburg P.S. If you have never read these poems, you should: Scary, No Scary by Zachary Schomburg and The Plummeting Old Women by Daniil Kharms | |||||||
