Your bioluminescence stopped my
heartbeats. Eyes of fireflies: coasts of
ardor / foreign dreams. As one,
we plucked oysters from the
wild’s whorls - strung our pearls…
then were flung to
separate
stars and
worlds.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

Aweosme to read "Love is not only in the light, it deepens in the silence of the night. "Good night" is said in silence most of all."
The nonet is such a tricky poetic form, but you have employed it with great effect in this brush with love in all its fleeting intensity! Congrats on placing! Richly deserved. I love the pic too!

Hello, there! I would like to invite you to check and share your thoughts on my latest article entitled "God Ra vs. God AMON." In this piece, I study one of the most captivating mythological themes - the conflict and the interaction between two powerful gods of ancient Egyptian pantheon. If you are a fan of mythology, fiction or just enjoy a good story, I believe this article will attract your interest. I would like to hear any reviews, ideas or comments!
