Poet Introduction
Writing poetry is the catalyst in my quest for authenticity and the conduit through which I express my deepest thoughts and emotions.

Pitiful, Just Plain Pitiful
The honeymooners ebulliently chat
having breakfast in an Inn’s café
spying a geriatric couple in another booth
eating in silence
never glancing the other’s way
newlyweds replete with optimistic youth
say “we’ll never become like that…
we’ll love each other come what may”
Fast forward 29 years
middle-aged man sits alone
having breakfast in an Inn’s café
digesting thoughts of regret and fears
remembers the aged, stoic pair
viewing their state in a different way
however dispassionate they appeared
at the very least...

Sentry - Self-Help Triptych
Woe is me obsessed
oblivious to how blessed
lend a helping hand
The doldrums persist
whilst compassion atrophies
lend a helping hand
Starve self-enmity
nourish self-serenity
lend a helping hand
oblivious to how blessed
lend a helping hand
The doldrums persist
whilst compassion atrophies
lend a helping hand
Starve self-enmity
nourish self-serenity
lend a helping hand

Cool night air conspires

Senryu Quartet – In Defense of Love and Kindness
Heart by love tempered
whole soul ‘gainst enmity steeled
come now peace of mind
Kindness only builds
hatred's sole purpose, destroy
life's résumé shows
True love germinates
in soil devoid of rancor
may life's thumb be green
Kindness will prevail
though battles by malice won
choose your side wisely
whole soul ‘gainst enmity steeled
come now peace of mind
Kindness only builds
hatred's sole purpose, destroy
life's résumé shows
True love germinates
in soil devoid of rancor
may life's thumb be green
Kindness will prevail
though battles by malice won
choose your side wisely

Some Conversations Can Wait
On the road, 3 AM
homeward bound
from a tense weekend
family reunion, her side
spent most of my time
just trying to hide
ya see her folks
they don’t like me much
call me a liberal,
hell bound sinner and such
though they keep casting
I refuse to take the bait
silent to their harassing
feigning a vanquished state
Hungry, needing a potty break
at a crowded roadside diner we pause
choking down limp lettuce salad
with a hard-as-nails steak
both exhausted, really shouldn’t talk
we start comparing...
