Biography
Hi, I am Alyssa, I go by many names in my head, here are a few: Alys, Ahli, Aleesa, and my nickname is China attained during a 480 mile hike of the Appalachian Trail. I love the outdoors, nature is my friend whom shares secrets with me. I love music, it connects with my soul, I like most all music, it all depends on my mood. I take dreams seriously, maybe a little to seriously at times, and I also like to keep a dream journal. I have written over 200 poems in my life, but at the moment I, sadly, cannot exactly say where they are all are. I am starting over. I have never performed, it makes me quite nervous to be in front of a live audience. I am a humorous, fun loving person with a masculine and feminine side, I believe are well balanced. I have my solemn side which shows it'self in my writing and artwork. Religious and spiritual subjects interest me but I have not declared any spiritual or religious denomination. I believe in a God, just not sure what conception of it.

November 9, 2014 Aleesa (alyssa) Hosking Windows shut Cascades are falling, crumbling Adjacent to my sanity. Ice is forming to the edges of the year, Heat of the tropical summer tears. All of our old friends: Mario, Molly, Lucy, Caine, Maryjane, and Al Are saying goodbye as they party on their way. The numbness reaches from my toe to my mind Reminding me to focus on the one true Eye. Skeletons dance in flames, flesh burnt off, Leaving the silver skull and x rayed spine, Carved neatly in my frame.
