About Me

I am a forty-something misfit engineer who still seeks my true identity. As a passionate introvert I meticulously bury much of my life in shallow graves. At the shout of their god they rise from the dirt and press at the gate; breaking though they trample over me in tears at the time lost and the triumph of awakening and issue from my left hand in imperfect verse. Or so it seems.

Quotes

  • What really knocks me out is a book, when you're all done reading it, you wished the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it.
  • The Catcher in the Rye
  • Each moment is the fruit of forty thousand years. The minute-winning days, like flies, buzz home to death, and every moment is a window on all time.
  • This is a moment.
  • —Thomas Wolfe
  • Look Homeward, Angel
