First Thoughts Have Tremendous Energy

Home Info

About: I believe in poetry. I believe in words. I believe our first thoughts have a stirring vivacity that can inspire and change others and ourselves. I believe in listening to those musings and inviting them in. Natalie Goldberg says in her book, "Writing is a path to meet ourselves and become intimate." Find the time to reacquaint yourself with those original thoughts. Write, read, play, compose, and always be in love with your life.

“Coquette, you called me once. Coy, you called me. I am

  I am, I am all for you.” —

“My mother forbad us to walk backwards. That is how the dead walk, she would say. Where did she get that idea? Perhaps from a bad translation. The dead, after all, do not walk backwards but they do walk behind us. They have no lungs and cannot call out but would love for us to turn around. They are victims of love, many of them.” —

Anne Carson, Plainwater

“Go grab your lovers, people, hold them close, feel the validation. You’re barely carbon-based without them.” —

William Giraldi, Busy Monsters

Me and you. Always me and you.

“I keep coming back to you in my head, but you couldn’t know that, and I have no carbons.” —

― Adrienne Rich

“Let me be, was all I wanted. Be what I am, no matter how I am.” —
