100 Words on Love, by Erin Kelly
–
Before 2005, I was stuck in the world of wrestlers and warriors. Nobody expected me to pick you out of the crowd. They say you don’t fit my muscleman protocol.
They’ve dressed you in a court jester’s suit when you’re not a one trick pony. They’ve labeled me as a doll with a set of wheels. I laugh, because they’re blind to what’s beyond the surface.
You make me laugh, wonder and weep with the characters you bring to life.
I’ve nickname you The Bearded Wonder. Not because the headlines say you age like wine. Because you’ve quietly inspired me.
