About Me


I like writing articles on real-life things. A few of my pieces are blogged above. Most are short, but the technical one is long. It is there only to show an additional dimension to my writing. I am also a traditional poet. Sample poem on musicians is below. Written 4 June 2009. This poem was taken out of the current book I am working on.
DON'T ROLL YOUR EYES
When you tell a friend
You want to be a musician
They just roll their eyes.
Well let me tell you something
If it weren't for the musician
You'd never have anything aesthetic to play on your radio
You'd never have anything prompting your high school memories
Or your honeymoon
Or the first time you fell in love
Or the trip you took with your buddies
Or the birth of your child.
Just remember -
The musician
Is what
Makes life beautiful.
Don't forget it
And don't roll your eyes
The next time someone you know,
Wants to become a musician.
