- Bio
- I am a poet-essayist-singer-songwriter, and advocate for the poor, with a teaching and counseling background. I grew up in Florida, now live in Arden, North Carolina. I also lived in New England 20 years.
I love nature, music, and poetry. I am married and we have three adult-kids between us.
I am interfaith, leaning toward Taoism Celtic, and Native American spirituality, and an "Obama Democrat." I am actively involved in his 2012 campaign.
I continue to write poetry, essays, and political Op-Eds. I am no longer substitute teaching.
I am never bored, life is an adventure. I have recovered from untreated Bipolar, but the creativity remains!
