About Me

I am a poet, not a singer. With that said, I struggle with singing my own written creations. A challenge I am still working on and one, I must admit, probably will not conquer. This limitation has required me to alter the style of presentation/delivery – from one emphasizing vocals to one of a spoken word technique with limited vocal arrangements. I am a mere poet, who tries to blend words and music. Thanks for stopping by, and for listening.
