The poem:

TODAY IS THE DAY BEFORE THE FIRST DAY OF THE REST OF YOUR LIFE

Falling in love
--a surreal
descent
that makes
every second
an eternity
of sweet anticipation.

Enjoy yourself
on the way down,

Because when you
finally get there
you'll find out
what the word

eternity

really means.

  • love is hot coals shoved down the throat and burning the intestines before the victim dies a slow, prolonged, painful death.

  • I love your works. It's always a big pleasure to actually SEE you speaking the poem. It's a much more capturing experience compared to reading only especially when the poet and his voice have such an intense presence. To see you on video/film is a pure audiovisual feast. You really should get casted for a movie, I cannot mention that often enough.

  • woohoo...you made me feel scared!
