Favorite Quote:
"So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past."
-F.Scott Fitzgerald, the Great Gatsby

"To write it, it took three months; to conceive it three minutes; to collect the data in it all my life."
-F. Scott Fitzgerald


The Gypsy boy
On the first birch bough,
Twigs in his hair and
Eyes like a magpie,
While up above a crow
Plaits circles in the gray
Empty gloom.
