About Me
writer, teacher, father, seeker, old(er) man physically challenged

If I could come back to life as an animal, I would be a
human being.

If I could come back to life as a plant, I would be a
redwood tree.

If I could have lunch with any historical or current person, it would be
my wife.

I could best describe my personality as
mercurial.

the price of free Infant Sorrow, first stanza My mother groaned, my father wept,
Into the dangerous world I leapt;
Helpless, naked, piping loud,
Like a fiend hid in a cloud.
