All my life, writing is the highest passion I have ever known. There may be nothing new under the sun, but I'd like to take everything under the sun and make people see those same things in new ways. I would like to take everyone in this world who is half asleep, and wake them up to the full capacity of the thoughts and feelings they have every moment of every day. Life is gritty and beautiful, and if I open even just one person's eyes to a depth they have never experienced before, that would be worthwhile to me. My name is Kevin Thomas Finucan. I am 20 years old, and I am a poet.
