Montreal, Quebec, Canada
i wrote some books and gave away library. i like to think that every poem is a love poem. i believe that "No" is a full sentence. i used to collect old books and young cats. i don't like noisy people, places or things. my three favourite words: yes, please, thank you. my favourite punctuation mark is the colon: i have a beautiful cat, a bicycle, an old typewriter, and a ladle. these things make me happy.

TICK TOCK TIME

The sky has her moods,
The mountains do too.
The oceans turn angry shades of blue.
Why even people sometimes do.
They sit lonely on a rock
Not minding the sound of tick tock.
They vacantly stare into space
Dreaming the dreams of a tired
And weary old race.
The earth, she moves
To thundering applause,
Her shifting and her clattering,
Shattering, deafens the ears.
But, I've no time for that,
I've people to see and places to go,
And that's that.



- Gwen Beauregard (2011)
