Winter
My face hurts from the cold, but I know it's the price to pay for such beauty, where the specks of frost hug the bony limbs of the normally beautifully clothed trees of months before. Bony and barren too has its own majesty in the right minds and manners. Winter's cold assures you that mankind has the fantastic power of breathing smoke, to show the cold's obvious and nagging presence. Winter may be cold, but it will do much and allow for a lot of hugging and closeness, for the introverted are forced to huddle for temperature. Its holidays also bring great joy and togetherness for all beings. But with all its beauty, it can also be unforgiving. Be warned, the air is hostile, the ground is greased and movement is slowed. If one is not of mind, it can turn you cold as well.

Desire to Be
Ive always had a fascination with beauty and how our culture interprets it. Most aspects I don't understand, but I do believe that the purest of beauty is the one that commands your attention. This poem is about my desire to be that very person in the room, demanding to be noticed without saying a word.
