I sit lonely,
In this white box of a room,
In silence,
looking at a small child,
who is sitting all alone,
Why is it?
Why must the child sit lonely?
I stand depressed,
in this white box of a room,
staring out the window,
and I see a happy white tree,
a happy tree standing depressed,
Why is it?
Why must the tree stand depressed?
I lay quietly,
in this white box of a room,
watching a baby play,
watching him throw his rattle to the ground,
his rattle that won't make a sound,
Why is it?
Why must the rattle lay quietly?
I vanish easily,
in this white box of a room,
and I see a rabbit,
see him running,
and then he vanishes,
Why is it?
Why must t
Everyone has a soulmate. I pity the ones who say they don't have one, because somewhere out there, there is someone else saying the same thing. They've never met, or at least never made eye contact, so they've never seen their glow. They've glowed before, of course. It is said that when you are born, you glow until you are a month old. No one really knows that though. All babies stay with their parents, inside, away from other eyes until it goes away. You aren't supposed to look at a baby's glow until you've seen your own. There are babies that don't glow. The ones not born out of love, but that is rare now. The only other time you glow is w
You light up the sky at night,
stretching on for miles.
Always up there in the sky,
a connect the dots puzzle in the night.
You get to hear the childrens wishes,
when you first appear at night.
A blessing only few things hear.
So this is to you stars;
make their dreams come true.
You have naver seen an orange kat,
until you have seen Karrot.
Plain orange, no black, no green,
the orangest kat you've ever seen.
Only one part is not orange you see,
his eyes are as blue as can be.
Karrot is a tiny thing,
he sleeps inside a baseball cap.
So the next time you put on a hat,
Please watch out for Karrot the Kat.

Daddy likes to make me
Eat my words.
I see him hit Mommy
And I know she hurts.
So I tell him, to get her
He has to go through me.
And, well, I can no longer walk
And I can no longer see.
Daddy makes me eat my words
And reality starts to flood.
Yes, Daddy makes me eat my words…
And my words taste like blood.
Then he tied a cord to the end of a mop,
And said, "Son, here's a pony, keep her at a trot."
And I'd ride in circles while he laughed a lot.
Then I'd flop down beside him.
And he was ninety years old in sixty-three
And I loved him and he loved me.
And lord, I cried the day he died,

The pain hadn't settled in yet. I was still numb with shock; I didn't want to believe it was true; it just couldn't be true.
I grew up on a ranch in Texas, some twenty miles outside of Dallas. My family raised horses for a living; I had been riding since I could sit up. I got my first horse the
So, I am going to Europe in a few days. I am going to delete most of my poetry and some of my pictures off of here. I'll upload more Disney ones and then, when I get back from Europe, pictures from my trip.
I am thinking about making a new profile. I just don't get on here much and I want to get back into it, but I want to start fresh. The new account would probably be mostly photography.
I have realized that I have like no artistic talent. I can't even really write poetry anymore, I've run dry. It seems like the only thing close to artistic I can do is bend wire. About the only thing artsy that I am good at is making wire jewelry. That and drawing eyes, but I can't get the shape of the eye right, so I'll stick with the wire.
