More About Me and My World
I am interested in many fields of endeavour now. My 4 passions are: writing, reading, astronomy, and music, in no particular order. Presently, I'm in my drumming phase, music wise, and I am rocketing out of a dry spell I had, writing wise, for 4 years. I have over 100 pages of poetry from that period. Reading wise, presently, I am reading primarily philosophy, and while I used to read almost nothing but fiction, I have switched predominantly to non fiction for a long time.

Reading wise, I love gothic literature, and quality sci fi...I LOVE watching b grade horro/sci fi flicks though! :P
Favorite Music:
Ghost in the Stand alone Complex OST's, Flamenco Arabe, various anime soundtracks such as Haibaine Renmei
Favorite TV Shows:
Law &Order, MXC, Eureka, Babylon 5, Star Trek Voyager

I don't want you to be unforgettable! Please remind me every day! Of why I can't take my eyes off your eyes, why my hips quiver when you draw near, why you elicit in me an… Continue

keep your eyes on me

Darling...will you keep your eyes on me? If I keep my eyes on you? Will you look my soul up and down, if I take in your loveliness up and down too? Darling...keep your eyes upon me, I will always keep my eyes upon you. I will always keep you in my frame of vision, if you will just frame me in your love forever more. Keep me in your eyes, my love, and my loves gaze will be on you forever, if you just keep your eyes upon me, and I return my loving gaze on you

Sun

The sun rises upon on newborn day, with new babes born, new loves adorned, New loves replacing loves lost, What's it all about, what is this for? It's all about what you make it, my dear.

Goodbye?

Hello doesn't have to be good bye to you know... it doesn't have to be a hello with a goodbye, hidden; like spring is hidden in the snow. Doesn't have to be the winter chill that is hidden in my bones, when the fall comes by and gently roams. Hello isn't goodbye when you simply let it be; simply let it be the hello that sets us free, the hello that that says hello to all of you, hello to all of me. Hello to all all your strengths and flaws, to all your joys and blahs. When we say hello in su… Continue

Sky

When my world collapsed to dark, you were there to unfold my world, unfold it to the light. You set me free to see the sun, to see the bright light that is in everyone. OH! How I envy the starlight wonderment in a child's eye, But jealous no more do I have to be, you restored that sparkle to my sky. No more do I have to look to a child's eye, to see that wonderment fly. Set those sparkles in my firmament, set them in my sky! Set my firmament free, to see the released love of life seen in a… Continue

Knife of hate

If my knife cuts, let it cut the wound of hate. When I soothe this wound, let it be with the balm of love. Hate cuts like a heated knife, heated with avarice and greed. If my balm soothes, let it be forever, its cure, its solution, let my balm cure, of all this world, its delusion. So take away your knife of hate, sheathe its stinging blade. Let the stinging blade stay forever sheathed, for forever and a day.

Trust

Trust comes from that guileless grin, from a life that hasn't been knocked about on the chin. Trust comes from knowing that you will not shake my universes ire, by telling half truths, that when found out, will make my life perspire. Trust comes from me, and trust comes from you. Please live my life so fully with me, in such a way as trust becomes some sacred, and all our truths, their veracity, no contest be.

I'll try to be making my page a little more extensive, and more then poetry. Ain't those two little kitties the cutest? :D Those are my neigbours 2 cats, Bosely and Verti, left and right consecutively. I seem to have a knack for taking great cat photos LOL. There are two more at purples page, if anyone cares to see.

I will be posting drumming videos as well, soon; I will try to do it in a subgroup, probably, so that it doesn't take up so much room here. It'll be me talking about my drumming, showing myself play and such. :)

CTI SPOTLIGHT ARTISTS

CTI Spotlight Artist Vickie L. McColley, May 1-15, 2008

Vickie L. McColley "The Romantic Poetess" As everybody knows, diversity is one of our primary strengths at CTI and the members of our community represent cultures from all over the world. They also represent individuals at different stages of their creative careers and development. One of those members is Victoria L. McColley, known to some as the Romantic Poetess, to others as Groovy Charmer, and to some simply as Vickie. It is our pleasure to present her at this time as the CTI Spotlight Artist for May 1-15, 2008. A long-time member at CTI, Ms. McColley has proven particularly adept at utilizing the site’s many features to enhance and present to the world her own unique vision of creative artistry. In addition to being a member of the CTI community, she also has more than 100 titles on AuthorsDen with more than 1,000 reviews of her writings there. The working title of her forthcoming first poetry collection is “Love Love Love: Poetry from the Heart, Soul & Voice of Love.” For more on the Vickie’s work and world, please visit her profile at http://creativethinkersintl.ning.com/profile/RomanticPoetessVickieMcColley

CTI Spotlight Artist Poetry Life & Times April 16-30, 2008

Our friends at Poetry Life and Times have featured a number of CTI’s members in their e-zine and, on top of that, have now been one of the great champions of modern poetry for some ten years. They actually have the archives to prove it! Their current issue not only honors one of poetry’s nobler traditions with its dedication to our very challenged "brothers and sisters in Tibet, Burma and Darfur,” but remains true to its mission by providing a platform for some of the most vibrant contemporary poetic voices on the planet. It is truly our honor at CTI to present Poetry Life and Times as our Spotlight Artist for April 16-30, 2008. The image of the monk featured as their main page profile image is borrowed from their current issue. To learn more about Poetry Life and Times and how you may submit your own work for publication consideration, please visit them at http://creativethinkersintl.ning.com/profile/PoetryLifeandTimes .

CTI Spotlight Artist Luther E. Vann April 1-15, 2008

(photo of Luther E. Vann by John Schmidt) Often described as a poet who utilizes visual art to write his poems, Luther E. Vann is an acclaimed artist who was fortunate enough to receive some of his first art instructions from recognized masters of the Harlem Renaissance. Like all artists of note, he shaped what he learned into a style of his own that fuses deeply spiritual imagery, metaphysical philosophy, and strong social realism. After a lifetime of dedication to his craft, his work will go on exhibit at the Telfair Museum in Savannah, Georgia, from April 16-August 17, 2008, and his first book, ELEMENTAL, The Power of Illuminated Love, is scheduled for publication in May. We’re honored for the opportunity to present Vann as the CTI Spotlight Artist for April 1-15 and invite you to visit his profile to learn more about him at http://creativethinkersintl.ning.com/profile/Weallare111 Your Friendly CTI Admin Support Team

CTI Spotlight on Daughters of Destiny March 16-31, 2008

Miriam K. Center, Founder of MKC Daughters of Destiny (photo by John Zeuli) As most of you know, March is Women’s History Month on our side of the world. Considering that women make up slightly more than half the planet’s population, it seemed appropriate to step outside the box of our normal way of thinking when it comes to the bi-weekly Spotlight Artist for March 16-31, 2008, and this time acknowledge the work of MKC Daughters of Destiny. While there are a number of Daughters of Destiny organizations around the globe, it just so happens that Miriam K. Center is one of our very own members whose creativity includes her leadership within the organization, her work as a poet, journalist, and author of a somewhat notorious novel. We are honored to invite you to learn more about Daughters of Destiny and Ms. Center at: http://creativethinkersintl.ning.com/profile/ADaughterofDestiny

CTI Spotlight Artist Cheryl Kaye Tardif March 1-15, 2008

Author Cheryl Kaye Tardif has won the attention and admiration of readers worldwide with her uniquely compelling suspense novels, including the celebrated “Whale Song,” “Divine Intervention,” and “The River.” Those who have noted her blogs at Creative Thinkers International and elsewhere know the author is not one to simply rest on her five-star literary laurels, but often shares quality communication with her readers and lends humanitarian support to the causes and issues that concern her. We are honored to present Ms. Tardif as the CTI Spotlight Artist for March 1-15, 2008, and invite you learn more about this gifted Canadian author at http://creativethinkersintl.ning.com/profile/CherylKayeTardif .

CTI Spotlight Artist Art Sun Hernandez Feb 16-29, 2008

We’re very fortunate at Creative Thinkers International to enjoy the online company of many talented, innovative, and generally dynamic individuals. One of them, Art Sun Hernandez, is the CTI Spotlight Artist for February 16–29, 2008. Through his strongly metaphysical poetry enriched by spiritual insight, political consciousness, and social responsiveness, along with the many thought-provoking images and encouraging comments he has shared with fellow CTI members, Art has become a familiar and celebrated presence at CTI. To discover more about our newest CTI Spotlight Artist, please visit his profile at http://creativethinkersintl.ning.com/profile/ArtSunHernandez

CTI Spotlight Artist Mitzi K. Jackson Feb 1-15, 2008

Writers who effectively blend folk dialect with classic literary traditions and the music of their individual voice to accomplish contemporary literary art of substance are generally rare. However, at CTI, we’re fortunate to have in our midst just such a writer in the form of Mitzi K. Jackson, the CTI Spotlight Artist for February 1-15, 2008. Whereas many of us at CTI have gotten to know Ms. Jackson through her superb poetry and supportive comments on the profile pages of fellow members, she is also highly regarded in various creative circles as an author of fiction that fuses emotional drama, powerful artistic symbolism, and unapologetic urban realism. To learn more about this exceptional artist, please visit the profile for Passion of the Poets or that of Ms. Jackson herself at http://creativethinkersintl.ning.com/profile/Mizkaja

CTI Spotlight Artist Michael A. Guy Jan 16-31, 2008

There are a number of ways that members of CTI might be familiar with Michael A. Guy, the new CTI Spotlight Artist for January 16-31, 2008. Possibly he was among the first to welcome you to CTI when you joined, or it could be that you’ve spent time on his profile page relaxing to his superb style of new age jazz. You might even have spent an evening or two reading his acclaimed novel, “The Last Renaissance Man.” If, by some chance, you are not already familiar with Michael, we invite you to take this opportunity to visit his profile page and discover a uniquely talented “renaissance man” at this link: http://creativethinkersintl.ning.com/profile/MichaelGuy CTI Admin Support Team

CTI Spotlight Artist Kimmy Van Kooten Jan 1-15, 2008

It is our honor at Creative Thinkers International to announce that the first CTI Spotlight Artist for the New Year 2008 is Kimmy Van Kooten. A player of the congas, writer of stories and poetry, and visual artist with a style very much her own, Kimmy is as versatile as she is prolific. We invite you to learn more about her by visiting the main page and/or her profile page at: http://creativethinkersintl.ning.com/profile/KimmyVanKooten . CTI Support Admin

CTI Spotlight Artist CG Walters Dec 16-31, 2007

As everyone knows without anyone else saying so, communities take their best qualities from the characters of those who dwell there, whether the community in question exists offline or online. The CTI community grows more fortunate with every member and for that reason we’re happy to feature a CTI Spotlight Artist on the main page every two weeks. That artist for December 16-31 is CG Walters, the author of "Sacred Vow," and one of CTI’s consistently thought-provoking bloggers. We are happy to invite you to view his profile on the main page and/or to visit him at http://creativethinkersintl.ning.com/profile/kathmandau .
