The Best Poem Of Kamiel Choi

`light Of Love

I stand next to the ocean
the light of our hotel room
is still reflected on the waves

The ocean wants to make peace
with everything. For a brief

Kamiel Choi Quotes

For maggots, happiness is just around the coroner

let me speak of love, for it should be no silent thing.

Not what you do professionally but what can entertain you defines who you are.

I want my words to live in a redeeming, magnificent song to worship the hole in freedom

My words that are idiot contracts written to the music of escape.
