Elder graduated from the United States Air Force Academy in 2002 with a Bachelor of Science in English and a focus on the writings of Jack Kerouac and The Beat Generation. He also attended Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado, studied poetics with Anne Waldman and the ghost of Allen Ginsberg, and investigated the word-as-a-virus concept of William S. Burroughs with James Grauerholz in Lawrence, Kansas. He owns and operates Hollywood Brotherhood, a company specializing in creating and casting sterling silver jewelry. He paints when he doesn’t have the patience for writing. Beyond that, he has also had a 20-year flying career both in the military and the private sector. The poems contained in this book were written on airplanes, in tents in the Middle East, in hotel rooms, on flight lines, on the floors of airports, in the cockpit while flying, and occasionally at his home base in Las Vegas, Nevada. While words have constantly paved the roads M.L. Elder travels, he has yet to reach his literary destination. More to come.view less
