Michael Carr

My name is Michael Carr. I'm 20 years old now, god help me, attending UTD on a full ride scholarship in the Biology pre-Med program.

IF YOU ARE READING THROUGH MY WORK FOR THE FIRST TIME, PLEASE HEED THESE WORDS:

Do NOT read my poetry first, as much as you may be attracted to it, it will not make you become a fan of my work, it's good, yes (not trying to be arrogant lol) but read a story if you can. I am a story writer, clear and simple, I write poetry now and then, but at heart I am a story writer.

My name is Michael Carr. I'm 20 years old now, god help me, attending UTD on a full ride scholarship in the Biology pre-Med program.

I've been writing for since I was diagnosed with Juvenille diabetes at age 12. I may be young but I've published in ABCtales Magazine and the Beta Club Magazine of Prosper. I love to meet new people, hope for feedback on my work. I live in Plano, Tx with me Ma and my eleven year old mini daschund Spike. I've written dozens of stories, a novel, and several scripts.

II was born 1991, in Plano Texas on 11:11 am. My mom's raised me all my life, I never met my father, who left before I was born. But I don't miss him, I know that when he left, he lost out on one of the greatest things in his life, me.

I write all kinds of stories, not much poetry, a few scipts, just finished a novel which I just had an agent request more pages from so here's hoping. I look forward to meeting new friends, so just send me a request if you feel like it, I'll hollar back. :)

No Country for Old Men Ending-
Many disliked it for the abruptness, but listen to the words. It's a brilliant ending



What does a scanner see?
Into the head?
Deep down, into the heart?
Does it see into me, into us?
Clearly or Darkly?

I hope the scanner sees clearly,
because I can no longer see into myself.
I see only murk.

I hope for everyone's sake the scanners do better.
For if a scanner sees only darkly,
the way I do,
then I'm cursed and cursed again.

And we'll only wind up dead this way
knowing only a little
and getting that little fragment
wrong too.
