One day... I woke up. I don't remember how long I was asleep, or even if I was asleep, or dead, or something. There are just some things in life that can't be understood. And for a long time, I refused to take that for an answer. I mean, WHY?! The unanswerable question and answer. One day, long ago, I took a break from the world to visit the cosmos. I don't remember how long I was gone, or even if I left, but what I do know, is nothing. Nothing more than you. And I'm okay with that.

The Average Man

I enjoy developing a relationship with my reader, with whoever decides to read my ****** poems. So I wrote this to be an introduction of sorts, and just to say that I'm no better than you, or no better than your worst enemy. I'm just your average man. And I'm okay with that.
