Life is a poem most people never read.
Every child comes into this world as a gift to humanity.
Welcome to the figurative world of poetry where nothing is 'real,' but everything matters.
Poetry is the art of using language to transcend language.
God made in the image of Man is an imperfect master.
Art is always, even at its most repulsive, an impassioned cry of love.
The age of selfishness and greed is over. The age of kindness and generosity is underway.
Love is the great truth we all know in our hearts and must eventually recognize.
Creativity is at the root of love and meaning in this life.
There are some who dream their lives away, but end up doing nothing, and others who do their lives away, and end up never dreaming.
Prose pretends to be straightforward in its application to the truth, but truth itself is a dissembler. Poetry, much more honest, knows the deception can't be overcome.
Those who refuse to look at or give expression to the dark side of life are in denial-fear preventing passage through the door of growth, truth and, ultimately, wisdom.
Life is inherently disturbing. That's why we've created the myths-to help us overcome, defend or deny, to transcend the grim reality of what here seems to be.
