Why is it
you can buy your kids
buckets of Cowboys and
Indians to play with?
But you could never, would never,
even if you could, buy them buckets
of Jews and Nazis, of Serbs and
Croatians, of Tutsi and Hutu.

ABOUT THE POET ~
Basic Mantra: “Disturb the comfortable; Comfort the disturbed." I am a writer & artist & photographer & fool. I try to use my fractal focus and obsessive tendencies to illuminate the edges of invisibility. I can usually be found around town snapping pics of locals, chasing my kids, drawing abstractions with my sharpies or long & gangly sticks, writing whatever happens to spill out of my pen, & reading banned books.
