I suppose any road to self betterment is...
I relate to Sylvia Plath far more than I’d like to admit.
Apparently, I am not yet too old for nightmares. Shame.
Men, trim your faces. Don’t shave your beards.

I am constantly searching for the perfect words. When I find them, they will be simple, soft, and only for you.
