Sweeter Than Reality


I write because I slip into a world. Not only seen, but listened to. Images sweeter than reality. The makeup for boring. To play with character. To be me or others in another whole. Bring worlds to peace. I write and it's no crime. I want to make lives. Change them with one word. Change their course with a verse. I write in secret. But my audience is my passion.
