For those who like poems and words

I am currently working on a new story!! :) I always grow alot, and learn alot, when I work on these new projects, it helps me shape my design sense better, my color sense, everything really. I also work on rendering skills and other things besides working on these projects, often because I need them to help me make a better concept or art piece. Anyway, I will post more on that when it happens.
On another note, I am always inspired by poetry, mainly for my stories.

 I believe these poem are the inspirations to my current life, and to the story i am now currently working on, I don't often write things on my blog about my personal life or anything like that, but I would like to believe I am growing as a person, that despite anything I am capable of feeling, that there is a core within me that remains calm at every moment. That core is always in balance, and I remind myself that. I am still trying to learn so much, about living, existing, about its value. Today I decided I wanted to write letters again. To write letters to people is such a wonderful  thing, even for people you don't know that well.

"everything is more beautiful because we are doomed.
you will never be lovelier than you are now.
we will never be here again."

-Homer the Iliad

"The best people possess a feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for sacrifice. Ironically, their virtues make them vulnerable, they are often wounded, sometimes destroyed." -Ernest Hemingway

Dear Reader I am trying to pry open your casket
with this burning snowflake.
I'll give up my sleep for you.
This freezing sleet keeps coming down
and I can barely see.
If this trick works we can rub our hands
together, maybe
start a little fire
with our idenification papers.
I don't know but I keep working, working
half hating you,
half eaten by the moon.

-James Tate
