I always wondered where and how IkE died, years later looking over these, I realize I killed him

I love the fact you photograph your poetry, it gives it more personality! Love it!

Thanks, It's something I figured out in Germany, rather than typing all my work, I could scan it. As I was backpacking alone with no certain destination I wanted to make sure I would not lose all my books if I lost all my books. Later, in my modeling days, I met a really great photographer named Franco Deleo who offered to photograph my journal from my failed modeling adventures in Milan and Paris. I put the raw unedited version here a couple weeks ago, the doctored version which I printed 100 copies of is for free up on my website. I may consider releasing more of my hidden works here in the future, I'm glad they are well received.

'my time divides between loneliness and contempt' i felt that one. Hey in the first one. Did you play sports and get injured at the time? This was cool. thanks for sharing.

I wasn't big on sports, I used to be great at track and field until one summer aged 11 I was swimming down by the river at the old dam. There was a spot where the river muck eddied on the surface and I decided to cannon ball into it. My knees struck the timbers sitting a foot beneath the surface quite hard. I never told anyone. I never went to the doctors, I don't know if I broke or dislocated anything in my knees, but for a year I couldn't run or jump anymore, it was written off as growing pains. Any time it rains, I can feel it in my knees first. Thanks for taking the time to read it, I know my handwriting can be a little difficult.

Ohhh.... man. that made the hair on my neck stand up. dang that must of hurt. So, did you write that one at age 11 or just recall from that experience?

Must have been raining that day, I was 17 going on 18 at the time I wrote this. I grew almost a foot that year, going from 5'4" to 6'2", it took many years to adjust, I'm still a little clumsy.

Make sure your daughters never forget, "Look before you leap."

That is cool you kept all this stuff. You probably would have never had guess it would make crypto with your writing back then. Keep it up. See ya.
