I am a Canadian, originally from Hamilton, Ontario. I have also lived in Toronto, the Ottawa Valley, British Columbia, and am now living in Calgary, Alberta. I have studied sciences at McMaster University and anthropology at the University of Toronto and travelled across Canada, the U.S. and briefly to Mexico and the Caribbean. I have been writing seriously for twenty years, been an active member of writers’ groups and performed my work in public numerous times, twice on radio. I have written more than 100 poems, many short stories, and am presently working on a few novels while participating in literary websites.

Writing

True Love Decomposed

My arms are empty, clenched in vain, / my mouth can say no more…

Other Moons

All around us, people were watching it in living-rooms full of television moon-glow and…

The Ocean's Daughter

“So he told this girl that of course he / had been in love once, but that girl had / turned out to be a mermaid…”

The Invention of the Electric Guitar

But those electric guitars / were making waves in the air, / so I just laughed and danced away…

Visitors From Another Time

We say to ourselves, / “How could I ever have / been so naive?”

Futuristic Swimming

Someday words will lose their meaning, / when thoughts flow mind to mind…
