Biography

Poetry has always been a catalyst in my life, drawing on all of my life's experiences, be they good or bad. I began writing at the age of 16 and most of those were just fleeting thoughts that ran across the gulf of my mind without any real prose or meaning. As i grew older and learned more about life's ups and downs, my works began to take on different connotations, even to the point of coming from a far removed point of view. Relationships, family, and just life's general monotony of day to day self-examination gave me the foundations of what came from my befuddled mind. Some poems were easily jotted down, while others took many hours of contemplation to get them the way I really felt comfortable with. Being an artist, musician, and a poet, I take inspiration from lots of varied sources. Now at age 40, and being a father, time is not as easily accrued as it was in youth, but I still try to keep my chops up as well as possible.

Ok tis the season to be DARK, Im here to give you a SPARK!!!!!!!

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
