I write poetry, mostly. I read every genre.
Passion, pain. I write because it seems to be instinct. The internal narrator has ready phrases, or two words rub together and a poem comes out of it.
Shakespeare, John Donne. Ken Kesey (Sometimes a Great Notion), Toni Morrison (Beloved, Sula), Nabokov (Lolita).
Let's have a poem, luv.
