      Around me are fifty or so men, in whose company I will sit and be silent for ten days. I eye them discreetly, wondering who among them is going through a crisis. Who, like me, has a family. Who’s single, who’s been dumped, who’s poor or unhappy. Who’

      About This Book

      I dabbled in writing poetry for years. I’m not traditional and I tend to follow the rock n roll poets such as Patti Smith, Bob Dylan, The Beatles and Jim Morrison. 

      In saying that, The Road Less Travelled, by Robert Frost, is my favourite poem. I can relate to it in that I have had to go on a very different path to many in order to get where I wanted to. It has been very tough, lots of trauma, and I could have easily fallen through the cracks. 

      I feel happier when I’m writing poetry. It follows naturally from me. 

      It’s my preferred style of writing and I fully intend on turning some of my poems into song lyrics! I do sing too.  

      I’m spiritual/Buddhist if you will
