twist.
...and what are the words one uses to describe a compilation?, works from my entire life?, fifty years of carrying around a yellow pad?, fifty years of writing and rewriting, changing the words, as their meanings change for me?
Constructive criticism regarding any of my work, always welcomed, appreciated and read with an open heart.

amazing how a simple twist
in the events of life
can distort even that greatest
of all truths, love.
that simple dynamic that we all seek so
desperately, yet reject so quickly.
