About Me

.... ....

Please visit VincentBRain.com
to read my poems and other writings. I'm hoping to eventually do some readings on YouTube so you can watch and listen.

Writing is my life. I write mainly poetry and lots of eccentric songs. I also dabble in other forms of writing for theater and film. I enjoy doing spoken word at live venues. I'm into surrealism and I'm a bit of a "Beat transcendentalist", someone who found the light from the bottom of the barrel in my youth. I began dabbling in poetry and songwriting in my teens. I had brief association with a few Beat poets in Boulder in the 1970s when I was in my twenties, including Bonnie of Bombay Gin fame. Met Ginsberg when he lived in Boulder. And I did occasional byline writing in the 1970s as well. I knew quite a few independent journalists and publishers. But I gained my first strong momentum in poetics and songwriting much later in the 1980s. It takes one skill to write poetry, another to recite it and another entirely to listen. I was born in the early 1950s. But I am connected to all ages, all epochs and all beings.
