Writing doesn't take a collaboration. YOU create the art without interference from other artists. However, creating in a void of other's opinions can hazardous to your creative process. Without that input from others I never can e sure I'm on the right track... that CAN be good... or bad. Feedback is good as long as it doesn't consist only of "That's GOOD" or "That really SUCKS!"


The Gravity of Gravity

Sometimes the universe is short and thin enough
to walk across in less than a dream minute.

Sometimes the universe shrinks
to the size of a handkerchief which
you may quickly fold into an evenly
proportioned square then slide neatly
and quietly into your back pocket,
pulling it out only when the allergies
kick in, or you’re alone watching
a very sad movie.

But sometimes the universe is too vast, too
dark and way too deep for someone like me.

Sometimes it frightens me
how clumsily it's laid out.
All those gases floating about
bumping into each other, exploding
into clouds of radiation. All those planets
rotating, gyrating around each other,
too self-conscious to just say, "Hey,
wanna go out for coffee?"
