Denver, Colorado

I have had many different types of jobs in my life. I have run several businesses and worked at a couple of colleges. I have had many other jobs also. My education consists of a B.A. in political science from the University of Missouri. My memberships include being a member of the Delta Upsilon Fraternity, The International Society of Poets, Young Life, and Campus Crusades for Christ. My awards include nomination for Songwriter and Poet of the Year, Editor's Choice Awards, A Leadership Award, and being offered a recording contract. My personal statement is to forget your worries and troubles and enjoy the moment.

Dilemma

Knights in armors where
Chivalry is dead
Macho men who hide
in their head
And if good deeds
Cause karma
You must be in bliss
Angels who seem to
Appear in the mist

People perpetually
Searching for Gold
In a world full of despair,
Lonely and cold
Someone calls you to
The Big Dance
In a land that is rich
With Circumstance

The Cosmic Plan

As Infinity stretches to twilight
Worlds go flashing by our sight
We are just on planet Earth
Stars that twinkle in the night
Laughing at our ridiculous plight
The trauma of our birth

And as we became a man
There was no guidance of a hand
We gained in weight and height
Slowly we began to understand
The universal plan
Was a turning to the light

We are creatures of the universe
There is no last: there is no first
Just what the father had planned
There's the miracle of death and birth
Plus your sense of private worth
And the brotherhood of man

Enigma

Excitations, degradations
Invitations, exhortations
Everyone speaks their voice
Running with the wind
Till I hear your voice again
Anybody has a choice

Mayhem, pay them
And sometimes betray them
Wondering at the morning dew
Escaping from the red-hot heat
Murmuring walking down the street
Asking only, "Where are you?"

Questions, answers, no solutions
As we gaze out at the pollutions
Contemplating if its worth it to be free
Roaming with the iridescent blue sky
Watching people striding by
While settled people watch TV
