Sometimes a more direct route to the heart of the matter…

Coming Home – yearning (and not as articulately as I’d like, but still…)

Father’s Footsteps – back in 2008 this was the first poetry I had written in several years

Infamous Bird – celebrity and notoriety

Moved – the contradictions and tensions in my relationship with the Christmas festival over many years, condensed, and (deliberately) riddled with cliche

No Escape – if you write…

Seed – much the same done for Easter and the resurrection meme, as Moved does for Christmas
