You will not find within these pages a haiku to inspire visions of a silkworm caught in a moment of introspection. This is not that kind of poetry collection. Instead in these pages you will find feelings and ideas which are stark, raw and honest . . . slices of life plucked from experiences both lived and imagined. Some are terrifyingly disturbing while others light-hearted and serene. If you dare to read forward and you are bravely open, you will begin a strange and magnificent journey through places in your mind and heart you might not have otherwise tread. Having been advised, should you feel ready then read on. Be prepared to enter the mind of a murderous stalker as he tracks his next victim. Witness the darkness of a diabolical, old woman whose reaction to interruption is harsh and extreme . . . then be carried away to a time of youth in a nearly forgotten yesterday and taste the sweet strawberries of a long lost springtime. These are poems about moments and what they hold whether they contain triumph, sorrow, happiness or loss. You will touch the face of loneliness, stare into the gaping maw of mental illness and addiction, perhaps learn a little about love, understand the sunshine in a new way as it spreads across a cold and frozen morning, and maybe even hear the voice of God. Thank you for sharing these moments with me and now let us begin this journey together.
