Love again...
True love will push you inside the tunnels you refused to enter. True love will push you to your knees and beg you to atop, this love will have you running to complacency and hiding yourself in fear because love will shake your feet until you are uncertain where you stand. You will not know if it is best to move on, move in, or move back. You will not know if the life you lived before that love...

Love.
There is something penetrating in the savoriness of the Love you’ve given me. It’s as if an acquired taste—like that of the hops in beer or the pungent flavor of blue cheese that you so adore.  I am beginning to feel my appetite for you growing on me, as if I were the rooted Banyan and you the Monstera deliciosa, the creeping vine of the rainforest. The first nibbles I took...

Families Teach Love
There is nothing closer to the heart than my family for they are the reason I have such a power muscle beating and pumping inside of my chest. For family tests the limits of our love and always they find the eternal presence of that power. What is discovered is that like blood, there is no life without it. It is constantly rejuvenating itself, constantly changing which cells come in and which go...

Why I Write:
Why do I write, if I know too well the path of such a vocation.   What is life for a poet? What is a poet? Certainly I do not feel I live to such a calling everyday—not only because I have lost my practice of writing daily, but also because, though it may come to a surprise, not every time I write a poem do I experience the words as a poet. Thousands of men may, through education, find the words...
