hey, been a while since I last checked your thread...

Actually, it's kind of funny that you say that, because I am in a band, and I've made a few thousand dollars in the past five years from my first poetry book titled, "Detached." It's out of print now because they didn't print that many to begin with, but they're all sold!
I have a few of my own copies left though, if anyone wants them.
[You want one, right?] $6.99 + Tax
My second poetry book, "Sententious - Subtly Changing," is currently in pre-publication, and slated to be released in the third quarter of this year.
It's about three times longer than the first...
I've actually posted quite a few poems from both of these books on this site. They're all copyrighted materials, but they're mine, so I see no reason why I shouldn't share them here.
I'm working on a book called, "The Eye's Of Calistori."
[Pronounced- Kale-Story]
This is a poetry book about dreams, and pleasant emotions.
See Post # 123 for some of these poems.
I'm about four hundred and some odd pages into an as yet untitled novel, and I hope to make a collection of my short stories soon as well.
Currently, my main occupation is as a journalist.
[Gotta pay my bills]
So you see, I'm actually living my dream...
...
I literally live off of my writing....

Whoa... that's impressive! One poetry book out, another on the way, a +400 page novel, a book in process, AND you work as a journalist?
Tell me you like physics and that you did some independent reasearch on quarks and you'll be my idol. Ok, on a more serious note... I love the three new poems and the song, I especially like the song and the 1st poem. That first poem managed to capture a lot in a short space. Loved it, like all your work. I hope to see more soon (especially a short story, can't wait to see your style in a story format), keep posting man. \m/ on.
PS: I'd like one of those copies of "Detached," but... I live in Colombia, and the getting of it here would be rather hard...
still, I'll check with my parents, see if they let me spend some cash. And, I can't wait for your second book, I hope it gets here.
