Favorite Quote:
Books? Fine... But only in December's
Winter-grey days. The garden, gray...
The window, grey. Outside, a howling day.
Inside, the warmth of glowing embers.

-Sabine Sicaud (collection of poetry)


Fever pitch frenzy,

rolling ball in the back
of my brain, hot, so hot
gonna get burned if I don’t get out
into someone else’s books,
someone else’s brain
someone else’s body.

The drip melts the snow,
it is so cold and I am so
damn angry hot with every
eye looking around the corner
not living
here alone, but in the next 20 years
of my life all at once.

Who says I can’t go anywhere
without an A in anything
but the arts?
