    How simple and sweet can you get! This is amazing! It speaks so loudly to me and I have no idea why. But I love this. Your talent screams out loud within every one of your pieces. I love it. I look forward to reading more of your work soon. It's wonderful. Thank you for sharing.

    Intriguing, to yield in softness of another's surfeit feignt for the sake of continuity gives power to the yielder at the point!!!

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
