I dedicate this quiet, unassuming website to those who once knew where they were going but who, accidentally or otherwise, got blown off-course; and to those who never knew where they were going but who, accidentally or otherwise, ended up where they were meant to be.

"To be nobody-but-yourself - in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight."
E.E. Cummings, Poet.

"Go into the arts. I'm not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practising an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something."
Kurt Vonnegut, Author

'Poetry is there for you
when you need it.
It finds you,
not the other way round.
Ignore it
and it takes no notice.
Deface it
and it still prevails.
Destroy it
and more is created.'
