I have been writing for over thirty-five years and have tried most genres. I find poetry and the short story to be my main format, although I do like to write philosophical/topical essays from time to time. I have been published, but that was so long ago I doubt anything is any longer in print. And, that which is, has long sense disappeared beneath its dust cover. I have been writing “silently” now for over twenty years and I figure it is time to reemerge from time's lost closet. My poetry is eclectic and deals with many concepts/ideas in, of, and about the journey of life. The short stories tend to be egocentric, but not exclusively so. Most of my essays fall into the metaphysical and philosophical realm and typically are very optimistic about man’s/woman’s relationship to ourselves; his/her fellows; the earth and our journey to life everlasting. I have, however, been known to dwell on language, communications, learning and the realm of theoretical physics.
