Poetry, Random Ramblings and Rants

Hey, it’s me, your often absent host, letting you know how this works for me… I’ve been writing for over 40 years, thru adolescence, active alcoholism and drug addiction, and into more than 20 years of recovery. I pick and choose from stacks of notebooks, editing and trying to capture fleeting glimpses of past, present , and/or gazing towards an always uncertain future. I hope it’s what I believe good art should be, non-linear, abstractly personal and hopefully relatable. You know, the old comedy/tragedy mask thing, because if you’re coming from a place of darkness OR light you’ve got to learn to laugh, or risk taking yourself too damn seriously. Watch if you will my continued childlike wants, needs, and dreams twist and turn, sometimes maturing, sometimes regressing, sometimes vacant or stagnant, idle hands being as some say, the devil’s workshop. Finally, like everyone else growing up in the 70’s I was gonna be a rock n’ roll star, so there will also be lyrics thrown in, as well as brand new finished “product”. Don’t know about you, but I think I’m ready… “HEY, HO, LET’S GO!”
