  • beingblog: “I love stories. Stories have saved my life, and I also question stories even as I tell them…We all have stories to tell…It’s the complexity of the human heart that I think is poetry’s subject — the complexity of the human experience.

Telling my story with a wholehearted intent brings healing in ways I would never have known otherwise.
