" He was six-foot-three, 230 pounds of Brawn, Jazz and Fury..."

The Exquisiteness

Suddenly... The Subject Became More Sensual...

The Hotness...

"Nothing can duplicate this feeling that pervades your spirit when emotions are new. Each neuron in your body fires at full speed. Everything they say or do becomes a new and exciting lesson in the intricacies of who they are…and what you are is an enraptured student of them. You could easily spend an hour just looking at them, and that hour would seem like a minute.

The simple act of just holding their hand causes these tremors and little earthquakes under your skin..."

~From Like Litter in the Wind- By L.M. Ross

Quote from "Like Litter in the Wind" ~ by L. M. Ross

"There are notes, some notes that sing us slowly… and there are notes that cry so sharp and high, they can define us, even in our deepest quietude."

All quotes from Like Litter in the Wind~ by L.M. Ross

" It seemed to him as if jazz was the only pure thing left. It became the physical embodiment of the sound and Spirit of The City. It was the essential soundtrack to mirror the cries, the hollers, the whispers and the screams."

Ornette Swinton Speaks:

"Someone I cared for very deeply once called me “tender”. I don’t know about all of that, but perhaps, just maybe I’m just another Harlem romantic. Romantics rarely edit the language of their hearts. It all just comes rushing out in the loveliness of our intent, and in the care-free originality of the way we think."

My Latest Book = CLICK COVER

Guaranteed... You'll Never Read Another Story Quite Like This One...

From "Like Litter in the Wind..." Lesson to Any Parent:

"There is something inherently wrong in a parent being ashamed of their children. To wish them to be better or different than they are, is perhaps only human… but to express it, even in subtle ways, can curse and afflict that child forever."

We LOVED You!

Gone... But Never Forgotten...

About Me

Moanerplicity: I love the art of expression. I hate limitations of any kind. I fear never having been felt. I hope there is a Heaven. I hear music all the time. I crave human understanding. I regret ever hurting anyone. I cry for abused children. I care too deeply sometimes. I always breathe. I feel alone in my solitude but dig it muchly. I listen closely to the lyrics of jazz. I hide my deepest pain from others. I drive some people crazy. I dance when I walk, yo... I write because it lets my soul sing. I act like a gentleman, most times. I miss the people I’ve lost. I eat new KNOWLEDGE. I drink vodka martinis, str8-up w/ a twist. I learn that life continues presenting new lessons. I feel I am a work in progress. I know a Creator exists. I sleep with dreams as constant companions. I wonder why I don’t have wings to fly. I want to heal. I worry about the future. I have a cosmos in me. I fight my insecurities. I need to purge sometimes. I am a human being w/one beak of song. I think I will sing. Thus far, I have sang in long form via the four novels I've written... the latest being: "Like Litter in the Wind."
