“I marveled over the cosmic metaphors in my life. Found that all I needed to see and all I needed to know; all I needed to understand could be found in a constellation shaped like the Big Dipper.”

“So I watch my sadness, gleaming in all of its soft pastel glory. And I listen to the arguments against my sanity. ”

“All I could feel was love leaking in my soul and my heart seeping bits of heaven.”

“When the door to my writing chamber gasps shut and the almost imperceptible sigh of a rose petal falls on my desk, I know that my muse is present.”

“That night I wasn't reading your palm...I was monogramming my fingerprints on the sidewalks of your lifeline.”

“Lick my finger so I can scan your table of contents- fuck the index- I yearn to ride your story line.”

“With you in my hand I can travel across the universe in one verse and skip moons to the tunes of Miles or Coltrane.”
