You are a very insightful person and I really enjoy what you have to say regarding poetry and also in your poems there is a lot there half hidden half exposed

Yeah I do know what you mean, and to answer your question of my favorite poem I really don't have a favorite.  I tend to like other people's poetry more than mine.  I have always looked at myself as more of a student, learning from other people as I read more and more I grow more and more and I am able to write better, well at least I think so.  Sadly sometimes its not the case, I just write so my head doesnt' explode.  I'm not sure if you're familiar with Emily Dickinson's work, but you should definately check her out, she is hands down my favorite poet.

I agree, it seems very beatnic.  Unusual for today's climate of poetry which seems to be more dominated by the slam style of poetry.  In response to your question regarding pain and poetry, I believe life is pain, death comes easy but living, truly living will always inspire pain, and pain inspires me.  At least for me pain is a motivational tool.  I believe it is also the case for you, at least that is what I get out of your poetry.  Unlike others though it seems we are sensitive and in tune with that pain which drives us.

Thanks, yeah I don't really have a set style as of yet.  I experiement here and there but for the most part keep them simple.  I find a lot of tranquility among words when its concise.  I also just like using words your not use to hearing most of the time.  I really just enjoy learning langauge and playing with it.  I'm sure you're the same with regards to that last part.
