Favorite Quote:
People grow through experience if they meet life honestly and courageously. This is how character is built. -- Eleanor Roosevelt
People with courage and character always seem sinister to the rest. -- Herman Hesse


Tears fall fast.
Cries call for consort.
Lies paint my past.
Fears need forts.

A handkerchief please.
A room for myself.
A cure for this disease!
Soldiers who can help.

A mop for these puddles.
Pills for this sadness.
Preclusion for these troubles.
Protection around the fortress.

A drain for this inundation.
A knife for this bane.
Truth for translation.
Mends for the pain.

An ocean for the torrent.
A cemetery for the dire.
A letter with the honest.
And an end for the tired.
