Be careful what you pour your love into and how you pour it, there's always back splash.
If ever I became a fully-functioning person who kept it all together, I fear I would cease to be me. And I sure as hell wouldn’t be a writer.
I may be beyond repair, but one person’s trash is another person’s treasure.
Poetry may be better at shining light on problems than fixing them, but it would be a mistake to think poetry is without merit or purpose. In the chaos of life, something must light the way.
to create a deep canyon takes time
for thousands of years waters flow over the stone
wearing it, smoothing it, shaping it
so it is with beautiful writing
the words flow over us time and again
-- or rather we flow over them
molding with care so they become
what they were always meant to be
When you write there is the sound that each word makes as it falls against another word, and there is also the sound of silence in between the words.
- Sharmagne Leland-St. John
