From the Author

Thirty-something and counting, I realize that I have been called to write. Writing allows me to express myself with mindful consideration. Publishing is my opportunity to share my calling with you. I have a destination in mind. My goal is to reach you. Poetically, I communicate with you with the intention to inspire and to feed you from an assortment of spoons. Read and give your best effort to comprehend, it will be enjoyment for you. I introduce you to a changed mind, a Settled Mind in III Ky 103. Consider it my gift to you. We begin our relationship walking a narrow line on the ground floor. Beautiful, how friends meet. I want to earn your approval, as we make this journey through the pages of my poetry.

Now, as we travel up foreign steps in search of the strength of poetic achievements, I introduce you to a stronger mind, one that is capable of surviving after being Down For The Count. In III Ky 107 I bring fire to the tablet. I am writing with intentions of you hearing me. Here, you witness a depressed, frustrated, and fed-up mind. More fire! This is not for young eyes to follow. Partake of the pages, keeping my mission in mind: to be inspired and relieved.

Dear Lord…

Dear God…

I don’t know what to do in this bitch

Life is foul

Strung out in this relationship

My son…

My wife…

Her child…

The weight of the world breaking up my shit

Running to the window

Looking for air…

Looking for peace…

Serenity…

Shout for deliverance

Someone must hear me

Someone must see

Looking at ideas

Feeling inside me

Some from instinct

Some from T.V.

Through the back door

I hurry

Tip-toe’n on hay-like lawn

Trying to release tension

Looking for satisfaction

Bothered by wings above

Every-two-minutes I hear these noises

Where am I going

I miss my toys

Heavy-footin’ back into the house

Headed for the shower door

Hot water low…

My wife is washing clothes

Nothing else to do

I ain’t got paid yet…

Can’t gas-up my car

Waiting on my check
