We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for." ~ Professor Keating (Robin Williams) in "Dead Poet's Society"
Writing poems is my obsession.I write myself into sanity.

Our Connection
Our connection, a safe harbor, a warm womb
encapsulating our turbulence , stilling us against
roaring waves crashing the shoreline.
Too safe perhaps. Lingering in the interstices
the need to create without compromise, suffocation,
erasure- afraid of losing self, freedom.
So we struggle between holding on, letting go-
balancing between need and desire
like pre-pubescent teens in turmoil.
