I'm a poet from Fort Lauderdale, FL. I live in Charlotte, NC with my fiance and our cat, Goose, who is fond of knocking our books (and various glassware) off of any and every surface. Here she is (left) when she was not yet big enough to cause such destruction.I love language because it's the way we translate the world into something we can understand (or something we can try and fail to understand). Our world is made up of what we pay attention to, and language is a means of focusing that attention. It's a means for observing (and therefore creating) the world we inhabit.
