I don't always write erotic poetry, but when I do, it always goes beyond vanilla. I am very open minded. I can write about almost anything, even if I have to research it first.

I ain't no academic though I've been writing for two score with the typical ups and downs. My work seeks intimacy and passion especially as it pertains to the dark and sometimes ugly side of the street. Thankfully beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
