About me:
Pisces in a committed relationship. Studying the art of Gratitude and defining my spirituality.
My poetry is mostly lyrical in form and confessional in content. Most were written between ages 14-22. Themes I've written about include Adolescence, Insecurities, Self-Image, Faith and Spirituality, Suicide and Death, Family, Drugs, Society, the Gay Life, and various types of Love. Styles include Couplets, Triplets, Quatrains, Shakespearian and Italian Sonnets, Lais, Blank and Free verse.
My claim to fame: Poetry, articles, reviews, and short stories of mine have been published in the local state newspaper and a school newspaper. I've also had poetry published in anthologies by The National Library of Poetry and Quill Books.
