                                                             is a collection of young adult
                                                            angst, tributes to those I loved,
                                                             the melancholy musings of a
                                                            die-hard romantic, and a little
                                                            dabbling in the politics of the
                                                             time… all of which made me
                                                              appear (at least to myself)

                                                                incredibly insightful and
                                                                          mature.
                                                                  In truth, not so much.
                                                           So, why is it sitting in your hands
                                                             today? Well, I’m in my mid-
                                                           fifties now, and my perspective
                                                                   has changed once
                                                               again. Now, this book is a

                                                            matter of legacy, a matter of
                                                            “proof of experience”, and an
                                                             excuse to never write poetry
                                                                            again.
