"Anyone can be Passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly."
-Rose Franken
some poems of mine, some are older some are newer but they're almost all pretty personal and meaningful, writing poetry is a way for me to relieve some extra steam, or sometimes boredom. anyway, i just like to have them somewhere.

Quote from Joseph Hellers "Catch 22"
"There was only one catch and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's own safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded. All he had to do was ask; and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions."

Special Quoting: Jim Jarmusch says...
"Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don't bother concealing your thievery-celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: "It's not where you take things from - it's where you take them to."
