About Me

I know a lot about not knowing everything;
Knowledge is a maze that cannot be run
Except with eyes and ears and mind closed.

I used to be all-knowing, like God,
But now I’m the monk that knows that he does not know.
I like to write and read and write and walk while I talked to the stars,
Orion has become a close friend.

I admire Dante, Milton, Khalil, Leon, Rudolph, Lardo and all the greats;
They’ve written their names in golden hieroglyphs on the walls of my heart.

I like cats too. And owls that coo at night. They see what I can never see, unless with a third eye.
I know nothing about women, they’re more complicated than a blind woman trying to wear makeup.

I believe in God. But sometimes I don’t believe in myself, my mother said it happens to everyone, self doubt.

I am not one to give up easily as long as there is breath.
I learn every second I am alive new ways to not die.

If you by chance allow Cupid shoot you towards me,
Then I, with open arms will hold you tight and never let you fall.
