About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: Montréal, Québec, Canada

I am the keeper of the woven words and paper words at a non-profit organisation here in Montreal- I also weave words in paper worlds and bring imagined worlds to life through theatre in my spare time. I also scratch around on a guitar, writing songs and then trying to learn them. I am discovering that I can do many more things than I once thought possible.

Of Tales Lost in Broken Time

I fought for the freedom to surrender, crushed by victory, consoled by defeat,
A play within a play within a life, within a dream
All I believed was that I should believe a bit of something, more of another,
true in every sense including nonsense

No more of more of the same thing,
Nothing from nothing, with nothing to say- blissfully oblivious to its non-existence
A question answered with a question, words without weight or meaning, soaring gracefully

Imprints are left by weighty words,
oppressing with authority
Impressions of hidden wounds,
onrushing crushing memory

Just about time for gravity
to be lightened up by levity,

Just about time for victory's
mirage to be left behind
for the peace one could find
in embracing defeat
