poetry is paradox: transcendance & a free fall into fragmented fragile malevolent self.

poetry is the removal of masks: the adoption of masks.

poems are fingerprints.

poetry is confession, contrition.

poetry is religion.

poetry is entertainment.

poetry is an attempt to saw the top off god's head.

poetry is a naked running flight through burning innerlands pursued by your mother who's holding a flamethrower in one hand and a clean vest in the other.

i write because i have a tribal mentality.....and no campfire.
