POETRY

A person who can write poetry is pretty special, because poetry is the addition of color to life. A person who can read other people's poetry without a critic's eye is really great, especially with what people today have to say. I once submitted a few poems to contests, and when I bought the books I got published in, my dorky, little poem was surrounded by anger and pain. I like to think that anger is more interesting when it comes through a smile, and pain is altogether more bearable framed in a laugh.
Here we go. Rhyme-y, rhyme rhyme.

Much of the poetry is gone, alas, because yesterdays tend to become preserved in a sad collection of regrets and sorrow over missed opportunities. Truth is, everything happened exactly the way it should have, if only for our part in it.

The quicker we let go of the things and people who comprise the memories we love, the better we can comprehend the things that are happening now. You can't read a book by constantly revising the previous chapters. You just have to keep moving.
