Leonardo Da Vinci said that Paintings is poetry that is seen rather than felt and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.
I disagree however because in my mind both paintings and poetry should be felt.

Aarron Laidig once said that painting is poetry for the eyes and that poetry is painting for the ears.

I hope you can feel the paintings I have created here with my words.

Melancholia
in the realm
of odium
Collection

~
This section of poetry is rather dark, sometimes romantic and every once and a while just plain hostile.
It is however what most people who read my poetry seem to like the most when it comes to my writings.
Perhaps I just draw that sort of crowd. Perhaps my laments are just something many can relate with.
I don't know the answer.
I must admit however that if any part of my writings could be said to touch closest to my soul... Melancholia in the realm of odium would be those writings.

The
Longest
Crush
~
This collection is what many would consider a bunch of love poems.
On an individual basis I suppose a few of them could be said to be love poems true... but together these poems are something much different than that.
Not just unrequited love, but love that is unspoken. The crush is not just temporary love. It is the kind of crush that breaks a person - as in to be crushed.
This collection is full of both despair and hope.
It is endless.

Endurance
and the
Life Eternal

I guess you could consider this my general poetry section.
Each poem stands alone and is related to each other only by having a common creator.
Poems inspired by art, music, life, pain, hardships, joys etc...

Sometimes I set out on a poetic endevour and then I get swept away.
The reults being nothing like what I had in mind.
More often than not I end up with a train wreck like disaster, but every so often something happens that although has no relation to my original intent or resemblance to my usual style just seems to work.
I have decided to share some of them with you.

I often say poetry is a way of painting a picture with words.
The poems in this collection give powerful images to my minds eye.
Great poetry can lift you up, break you down, inspire you, make you laugh and make you cry... These are some that get to me.

Next section
coming soon.

I have been writing poetry sporadically since the mid 80's and regularly since 2003 so I have many different poems to sort through and decide what comes next.
As of now I have no clue what the next collection I ad will be.
Check back now and again to see.
