Whats It All About?

Its all about the twisting, turning, thinking, learning, bass pounding coffee grounding, love-making, risk-taking, life, yo.

I believe that everyone deserves to be treated like a human being, to not be hungry, to not be afraid. I believe that a country has the responsibility to take care of its citizens, and I believe that everyone has the responsibility to look after those in their community, the global community. Finally, I believe that every human life is as equally valuable as the next; it doesn't have a price tag. You could say I'm an idealist, but really I'm just not willing to settle for less.

blue eyes

I thought.
I thought, I jumped,
my jaw jumped right up onto my lip
and for a fraction of a second I imagined that I had bitten
all the way through my lip
like my brother had as a baby

Oh--I know why
I jumped
I thought.
I thought about how
your eyes were the same color blue as the sign
on the wall of a store
that I drove by
earlier today

I thought because your eyes are blue.
