These poems came out of a series of emails called "Poem of the Week," which later transitioned into Poetic Moments. During rather uneven times in my life poetry seems the best way to address the human condition, with all of its turmoil and absurdity. Perhaps a poem can speak volumes to the heart when the head is stuck in the mire of materiality. And so it goes, and so it goes, we grow in ways we know not of.
