Poetry is the warp and woof of the Bible.
What are symbols? The medium through which we see and create our worlds.
Feeling involves all the senses, including thought.
Each spark seeks another spark to make a fire.
Time expands when you focus on what is truly important.
For me poems are as much oral as visual, as much spoken as written. I need to perform them as much as I need to write them.
Symbols fill the gap between raw energy and form. Poetry and dreams do the same.
