“By the Waters of Loneliness” (December 2013) – this is about an experience I had one winter during my first marriage, while living near the beach in Florida.

“I Tried to Dance” (October, 2014) – this poem deals with a particular type of heartbreak that many boys deal with, but few ever express.

“Generations” (March, 2015) – One of my all-time favorite pieces. This is about how, sometimes, people in broken families pass on their brokenness.

“Kiss the Dawn” (September, 2015) – This was a piece about a mood I was never quite successfully able capture before.

“Whole Love” (February 2016) – My original purpose in poetry was to try to capture and express single thoughts or feelings. This is an example.
