    Rosie's ode to O [sic all]:

    ms winfrey

    the book
    was hard 2 write

    things i could barely say aloud
    alone in a room
    made their way to the comp
    thru the key board
    or tape recorder

    writing is
    4 me
    by far
    the most revealing medium
    2 work in

    i do not feel ready
    to discuss or defend
    the things i shared
    on those 209 pages

    read it urself
    take away what u need
    leave the rest
    it is what it is

    the goal always is peace
    self revelation
    sharing - learning - teaching
    balance
    wax on wax off

    for now
    i decided no interviews
    about celebrity detox
    it is too raw

    my no
    has nothing 2 do with anything
    but me
    my need 2 find my place
    within

    oprah is a force of nature
    her invitation made me cry
    her kind words about the book
    reinforces what we all know
    2 b true about her

    although fueds seems 2 b all the rage
    there isnt one
    regardless of what u read
    or see on fast food tv

    with pure intent
    comes pure result
    we pray

    off 2 b dawn budge
    in the other holy land
    peace out peeps
