an introduction

2003 was the year that I attempted to expand my poetry into different fields. During that time my friendship with the boy from 2002 dwindled and hit the rocky territory of non-existence, which provoked me into writing under the influence of depression and loss, which explains the meaning behind poems like "Unread" and "Grip". These emotions would then evolve into anger, explaining the beginning of my more sarcastic, rage-inspired poetry (such as the scene in "Plotting"). During the year I also ranged in different inspiration from other males, one of which was a shy hockey player that sparked the strange emotion behind such poems as "Brown Like the Earth". I also went through a dark experimental stage, writing works like "Perfection Bleeds" and "Handcrafted".
