The Last Resort
On her balcony lay an avocado.
Tossed by a neighboring fellow.
He was locked out of his place,
so lobbed fruit with a drunken grace,
and hoped the noise would awaken an echo.

About Writing
Most people talk about things that bother them as a way to vent their emotions, another way is through writing. As I sit writing in my car, I ponder how much writing, in itself, has helped me become the person I am today. I have endless amounts of pages filled with poems, stories, and sometimes random blurbs. Writing is a window into your soul. The simple action of writing has benefited me; by helping me to achieve a better memory, helping me to learn and grow intellectually, and helping me to communicate my emotions.
