Karen Alc. Biography

Lover of the written word, forever aspiring spiritual truth, not always sure where I'll find it.

I'm a native 'New Yawker', an acculturated Latina who is in love with her Latin roots. I would say that I'm a very happy spirit who likes to give and receive good energy from good people. However, I'm usually inspired to write during times of duress.. I suppose that's the 'tortured artist' in me who finds inspiration in melancholy.

My poems generally tell a story of something that's occured or that I had been going through at the time. I have been writing for years, but sadly never kept any of it. I am humbled to place some of my writings amongst so many talented people, but I am also glad that there is an outlet such as this one and such a wonderful network of positive energy. I'm very happy for this site to exist and to be able to share my life in such a strangely intimate way with you all (and vice versa) .

Thank you Poemhunter for this wonderful site and for the wonderful people who I have had the honor of chatting with and reading their works.

Peace and love to all...
