    Research has changed dramatically since I was in school. I remember in elementary school the libraries still had card catalogues. We were trained in how to use them to find books that we wanted to find. Technology moves fast because by the time I was in high school, card catalogues were starting to go extinct.…

  • Three Easy Pieces

    I ran to the record store today with determination. I hadn’t heard one song off the album I went to buy but I didn’t need to. I knew that this album would be good. And I was right. Most bands seem to change their sound every album. The artists always claim that it is a…


  • Me vs. Myself and I’m Winning

    I heard that line in a song recently but I can’t remember where it is from. Time for a Google search… I came up empty on that search. Time to email my friend, his brain is full of hip hop and television trivia, if he can’t help me out no one can… Alright so I…

  • Trio of Poems

    I don’t know why I wrote that trio of poems on the theme “Out of Bounds.” It was just something that came into my head and I immediately saw three different takes on that one phrase. I wrote them quickly in one night, but now looking at them a week later, it seems that they…

Love is about sacrificebut the price would be greatI’ve felt infatuation beforeit’s a weightupon my heartthat begs for release…


  • Out of Bounds

    You want what you can’t have.It’s a universal truth,at least I hope so. It could explain a lot.I want things that I don’t need,I need things that I don’t want.I try to stay in boundsbut what exactly are the boundaries? People break laws all the time.Everyone speeds down the 401,if I don’t follow the flow…

We never learned to live with each other The only thing I know is that love requires a lot of sacrifice.And I believe that it can only…
