Bio

Writing is foremost a way to express all the depth of passions one usually cannot express when moving about in a societal textuality that defines existence as the black & white of actions that do not provide room for the non- linear sensitivities of our beings.
When one writes passionately the observer and the observed become one because the distraction of a plastic physical reality outside oneself and overwhelming to oneself doesn't have the same negative effect on the contemplation of self as omnipotent/pristine.
Therefore writing should involve the reality of the cathartic or primitive mind or the being prior to the social engineering of it as well as the intellectual . Emotion in its capacity as a natural/organic expression distinct to a synthetic form(psuedo - intellectual ) out to reinforce particular social mores needs to be accepted in its indeterminancy and primordial beauty. Although many would like to suggest communication should take place only within limited language strophes whose intentionality is more often then not ideological and of course dogmatic and under specific political controls such as function within instititutions, govenments ect we should also understand that the emotional aspects of writing are necessary to the preservation and integrity of the individual and important to us in value as a natural gift . As a simple release of emotion goes writng with feeling in mind provides solace & peace of mind in a culture that might otherwise not provide an outlet for the range & depth of emotions .
