As most know, I am a published author of a book of poetry called, "Diary of a Skinny Girl."  I honestly feel blessed to even be able to say that.  Since I was a little girl it has always been my dream to publish a book.  "Writing is like water to me, I need it for nourishment."  That's my quote!

It is the best gift that has been given to me.  This book that I wrote is very personal, because each poem is meaningful.  Some are about my life and some are about people that I know.  The book is a coming of age book that I hope will one day inspire young women.  When I wrote it that's who I had in mind.  Love, heartache, being single, dating, sex, prejudice... these are the topics that so many of us can relate to.  With that said, I have decided to share one of the poems from my book.

It's called:

The Colossal

Driving to an insane path
Tunnel of lust
subliminal messages
Marked, sealed, and mailed
Delusional convictions
Guiltily incapacitated
BEWARE!
Soul of hidden desires
Seven deadly sins
Extensive infiltration
Extended brownish-yellow
Canary passerine bird
Calling of the wild
Unable to be tamed
Over indulgence
is not a crime,
But gluttony is a
Sin.
