About Me

  • About Me: I can sing Puccini like a goddess, quote "Spaceballs" and "The Big Lebowski", articulate on abstract theology, read your cards, and tell you about black holes and Hawking's musings, and write pretentious free form poetry (like everyone else you know). But I cannot tell a joke to save my life. I believe I am a tangent queen....those of you who don't know what that means, be glad.

"Whispering lunar incantations...Disolve the floors of memory"/.................................................................................................................... "perhaps the same bird echoed through both of us yesterday, seperate, in the evening..."/................................................................................................ "Make me a willow cabin at your gate, And call upon my soul within the house; Write loyal cantons of contemned love, And sing them loud even in the dead of night; Halloo your name to the reverberate hills, And make the babbling gossip of the air Cry out “Olivia!” O, you should not rest Between the elements of air and earth But you should pity me. "/..................................................................................................................................................................................... "She cried "Laura," up the garden, "Did you miss me ? Come and kiss me. Never mind my bruises, Hug me, kiss me, suck my juices Squeezed from goblin fruits for you, Goblin pulp and goblin dew. Eat me, drink me, love me; Laura, make much of me: For your sake I have braved the glen And had to do with goblin merchant men."
