expanding the blog

Due to time constraints and such now with school, I am toying with expanding the scope of this blog to include things beyond fictional writing. I will still promise at least one post a week of creative stuff, but the other days could be essays or reactions to events or reviews of things. Mostly, I just feel like I'm putting too much thrown together poetry on here.

What do you think? Leave your thoughts in the comments or email them to me.

what is isn't what i see

Everyone always assumes that I'm X
Because everyone expects Y to L
But it's not
Not always
Not most time
L is the performance of Y
I am Y in the mode of N
Which no one expects
When people meet my Y
They have a choice
Learn the vastness of what Y can be
Or pretend that my N is not an L and
Therefore I must be hiding my X

Expectations will change
Not just for me
Maybe they will just cease to be
Then my Y can be N
or O
or 1
or &
or a million other variations
And her X can be L
or A
or 7
or )
or anything else
or nothing else

Let be let be

I love when people prove me wrong. I like knowing that even mainstream folks can live outside of expectation. I appreciate that courage. Cheers.
