My name is Dennis M. Stanfield and I'm a college student in Ohio. I've always been a fan of poetry but never wrote until January 2006. I love to write about everything. I love Stevie Wonder and I believe all of his lyrics are poetry. He is a great influence on my writings and probably the biggest. As stated in my 1st published poetry book, A Walk Through My Mind, I am influenced by everything; life, music, politics, my family and God. I'm continuing to grow as a writer and I'm working on a follow up poetry book called, Journey. I'm here for a reason and I hope the people enjoy it. You can get at me at marc_man_arts@yahoo.com
