learned a love for writing when i was a child that has stuck with me most of my life. Poetry proved the outlet for me since it is a world a sight and feelings with a flow. i grew up as an only child whose father died when i was young and a mother who did her best for me so i was a kind of lone wolf who found his love in the written word and later on as an adult in music. both still remain even as i cruise through my senior years.

fears

we live in a world of fears
the always here fears
fear of being hurt physically
those all too reasonable ones
the ones always there
now we fear the stranger
the one of different skin
the ones whose color is not ours
whose language we don't...
