What you shall find...

When I set to the task of writing this blog, I wasn't sure of what to write. Should I write about my day to day life, or the day dreams I so often experience? In the end I decided to give you all a taste of my writing. Within this blog you will find poems, stories, wonderings, and random nonsense. So for the sake of all writers out there, I hope you enjoy my little tidbits, and don't become too lost in the magic of it all...Good luck :)

Infliction or Inflection

Hey all :) Well I met an awesome guy a few day ago and he's from Nigeria, which is awesome! School has been going better, I'm actually getting up on time and going to my classes. Thank goodness! There's not much going on in my life right now, but I think it will be picking up soon and getting more interesting. At least I hope it will...now I have something new for you. I hope you enjoi it...


           It lies not within your heart, but rather the heart of others. It is not to be found in an artichoke heart, or an animal heart. It is neither the heart of the matter nor of the meaning. It's is not an organ, nor is it the central focus of a conversational topic. It does not beat a thin heart beat, it does not stutter and fail. It's your language, as you stutter and stumble and jumble the words. As other's try to understand, as you pour your heart out to them. With your tongue hanging lose and bleeding, no longer the heart of your speech. It is the universal organ, the language, the feeling, the meaning. It is the hope, the heart, the hug, the hatred. It is what no one knows and what everyone sees, what they touch and taste and smell and sound. And even at the heart of language, it has no name.
