Story Behind The Book
This is a book of poetry.
But it is more than just that.
It is a very personal, no holds barred, exploration of the life I find surrounding me and within me. It is my search for and about what I view as being reality and illusion as I personally view these concepts. It is about life and death, pain and pleasure, sadness and laughter, falling in love with what we call “words”, being captured by them, picked up and tossed roughly about by them, caressed gently by them, and then slowly being set free by them to awakening from a drowsy drunken sleep to find myself having been somehow changed by the brief encounter with them, enchanted by how they tumble about to create sentences which tell tales and it is about my desire to share with others what I feel, see, laugh about, cry over, hate, love, fear, desire and am intrigued by that which I find surrounds me daily.
