I have been interested particularly in those arts which push envelopes. I wrote my first poem between first and second grade. I've lived in Charleston, WV since 1975.

My poetry has been taught at the University of Iowa (thanks, Dan!). My ambitions are few, yet"¦ambitious. Nothing short of Nirvana will suffice. The contents of this book are conceptual photographs, artwork, and other plastic works that I deem to be evocative in a manner similar to that of a traditional poem. They are rather like Haiku of the mind." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
