The world has enough youth. What we need is a fountain of smart.
Some all-time faves of mine. Little pockets of marvellousness.

Before giving up on a difficult task, try to imagine it successfully completed by somebody who you passionately dislike.
I hope some animal never bores its way into my head and lays eggs there, because one day you might think you're having a good idea, but it's just eggs hatching.

Purr's Self-Promoting Top Ten. >:) Because I've been DP mailed with requests about 'which of your poems should I read?', and damned if I know. So here are the ten poems that, according to my Stats-O-Meter, other people seem to like the best.
This is update #6. I've been AWOL awhile.
1. *deeper than ... wordless* (Still the winner)
2. Green Fire (The consistent runner-up)
3. The Ballad of Flattery's Doom (Holds steady)
4. Damn Reality (Hits its all-time high!)
5. Lupercal (Swaps places with number 4)
6. guilt and inner sins (Up two more!)
7. Pen and Drink (Holding steady)
8. Desire (Drops by two)
9. Love's Vespine Allegory (Up by one)
10. Triptych I: deConstruction Time Again (Hooray! Makes its first appearance in the top 10.)
Sadly, 'Bent' drops out. My most-bookmarked piece isn't one of my most-read anymore. Go figure.
