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.

A Bad Reaction

You may say that I've grown bitter
It could even be true
If only from time to time:
times of words adding insult to injury;
occasions that turn out to be special
in all the wrong ways

Sometimes, I think,
I can only take so much sweetness
before I respond with anger
Beauty gives way to ugliness,
and the war inside frightens me,
my peaceful intentions falling away

But even that must end
and then,
my friend,
I simply have nothing more to say
