Life's Lines May
tell a story.
be caused by worry.
be decorative in nature.
be a sign of wear.
make us wait.
not be crossed.

Life's Lines May
I am a poet and photographer who likes sports, jazz and art inspired by other art. I served in the U.S. Marine Corps during the early 1970's and was assigned to the Computer Sciences School in Quantico, VA. I have published a chapbook of grief poems, I Keep You with Me. My work also has appeared in publications such as Thorny Locust Magazine, core. zine,The Enigmatist, Veterans' Voices and Kansas Time + Place An Anthology of Heartland Poetry. My visual art pieces combine poetry and photographs, and have been most recently displayed at InterUrban ArtHouse, Johnson County Arts & Heritage Center, Buttonwood Art Space, and The Smalter Gallery.

I Stand Beside You
I Stand Beside You
I stand beside you,
poised to listen to your soul.
Unburden yourself.
No words are too harsh
to end our conversation.
I listen freely.
No conversation
is too long to hold my ear.
I listen closely.
No sorrow too great
to cause me to turn away.
I listen always.
I stand beside you
firmly, without fail.
I'm going to take a break next week. My next post will be Tuesday, August 30.
