This is where I will slowly release poetry that I’ve been writing over the years. Presenting it here is a large part of the process of creating it-the last challenge of an arduous journey-that leaves me vulnerable and trembling. I don’t edit my work, I usually don’t even go back and read it. It is most often created in quick burst of writing when my thoughts and hand align. I say this to explain any obvious grammatical or spelling errors. Thank you for indulging me. If you have work that you would like to share on this site please contact me. It is my hope that this will be a safe place where all shy poets and or writers can show their work. I do honestly believe that putting work in front of a public is a large part of the process.

FROM A BOOK WITHA. BICYCLE ON THE COVER:——————————————————————————

as insecure as you may be

without question

you believe in me

is that love softening the blow

is that my efforts

my talent? my fame?

lets keep it clean

lets wash our past

lets forget this

ever happened

and target serenity

by tiptoeing to bed

unhearing all I said

unreading all you read

lay down like a corpse and pretend were dead.
