Favorite Quote:
&quot;I see myself as an intelligent, sensitive human, with the soul of a clown which forces me to blow it at the most important moments.&quot; <br /> --Jim Morrison, The Doors


In every murky forest stands a soul
Embracing the forgotten and abused
Reviving long-lost aspects that are null
And ousting all the evil that infused

Survival of the utmost testing trials
How solemn has this busy world become
Inhabited by people without smiles
The feelings in their lives becoming numb

‘Tis one big world of business never done
Don’t ever let them feed off of your mind
The essence of their lives now utter puns
So follow me in forestry divine

If trees won’t lure the business man from bill
There’s nothing on this Earth that ever will
