Fiction is Safer


Lost in books,

Hidden in nooks

Behind library shelves

He lives.

He hides 

In the ink filled lines

Between covers

Bound with love,

Torn by time.

I am crazy, according to society, but that's not uncommon anymore. I love music, I play piano, guitar (electric, acoustic, and bass), drums, and violin. I can and write for music for all of my instruments. I own two dogs, a very smug cat, and two ferrets (which I refer to as kids).
