My biggest influences, for poetry, have been: Leonard Cohen, Erica Jong, Poe, and Anne Sexton.

"Love is a fire
It burns everyone
It disfigures everyone
It is the worlds excuse for being ugly"
-Leonard Cohen

"To fall in love is to create a religion that has a fallible God."
- Jorge Luis Borges

"I want to do with you what spring does with cherry trees."
-Pablo Neruda
