1. i am not a poet - growing up

    I think an interesting

    phenomena is how that

    as children our sleep is

    full of dreams, whether it

    be heroic tales of gallant

    bravery or nightmarish horrors

    that throttle us awake

    yet

    sadly, as adolescence approaches

    our nights are dark blocks of

    dreamlessness, punctuated by the

    ringing of an angry buzzer and

    the breaking rays of the morn
