    Do you have images that go through most of your poems?
    I've realized that in many poems i've writen there is a general image of rain. idk, it seems to inspire me, but, well, i feel i start to repeat myself in poems! do you have such "sustainable" images going through your poetry? do you think it's okay or it's better to broaden images to express feelings (and how) ?

    I'm not -quite- sure what you mean by "images," but when I think about my body of poems as a whole, there are significant repeating themes about light, taste, and (in particular) the sky.

    I think the underlying message or image in most of my poetry is Underachievement. Or fear of underachievement. Too many Ifs and Buts so to speak. Even my love poems have a hint of not quite achieving the best.
