Favorite Quote:
"Moderation is a fatal thing; nothing succeeds like excess"


Blue overtaking yellow, stroke after stroke
Individuality attained
Through store bought, generic ocean reflections
Elbow grease turned eight-year-old pride
Via crooked scotch tape and inevitable drippings
Images displayed over double sided bindings
Disfiguring the eternally 3:00 pm sky
Long after violent outbursts of angry tears
Torn photographs depicting adolescent lovers
Abruptly removed, deprived of forewarning
Unfamiliar brushstrokes
Composed of jet-black printer ink read right to left
Staining walls brushed left to right
Yellow fragments transpire, blossoming blue
Burrowed in unexplored corners
Or positioned vexingly, distant
Like the gift of a morning sunrise
Only frozen in time
