On the Edge of Reason
Newer, edgier stuff...more me, less flowery verse.

My Poetry class has corrupted me.

Seriously. This is the result. I'm now writing much more raw, much more intense stuff. Gone is much of the flowery verse and the cute parallels. (The parallels are still there, but less obvious. You get to look for them yourself!)

This is my journey, trying to find the way I want to write. I'm getting there, I'm finding my voice, slowly but surely. It's still growing up, just like me.
