Favorite Quote:
"Humanity can be quite cold to those whose eyes see the world differently."
Eric A. Burns, Gossamer Commons, 08-24-05


I pitter
And patter
I drip down like water
To the bottom of the world
To the source of it all
Under rock
Over tree
Between thoughts of you
And words of me
I am rain
I am wind
I am where it all begins
I come now to separate
And forever to join
The ending
The beginning
The standing
And the sitting
The truth
And the lies
Are all the same in my eyes
They are yin
They are yang
They are one within one
And both within none
Forever within never
And sang within sung.

I was thinking about writing a series of poetry exploring the personality and position of the poet, and this was the first one.
