lara is a 29-year-old gypsy/mother from columbus, ohio. she enjoys outlaws, exaggerations, working with refugees, barbaric and rebellious children, burdens, and opiates. after extensive philosophical training, she decided the only real life was the life of the poet.

since money, options, and death make life an oppressive place, she decided to free herself of such chains (holding on for dear life to her makeup, vanilla perfume, and stylish clothing). clearly, the only reality in life is the life of 'doing' and poetry brings us closer to the 'doing.' poetry is the instruction manual. the dictator. map. everything. also, she really enjoys chocolate, love, and magical coincidence.
