I was born and raised in a small rural town in Alabama, called Beulah. I moved to the uniquely beautiful city of Mobile when I was eighteen to go to the University of Mobile. Since the move I have worked odds and end jobs to get by day by day.
I served over a year as a youth pastor as well as other years of ministerial roles. Due to personal conflict I have since resigned and done much life searching and refueled my passion as a poet and a writer.
I am at the beginning of my serious poetic career and am developing as I write and study different styles. The goal is to express the beauty and enlightenment that I have in my own life to readers through poetry of all realms of life good and bad. In doing so I hope to one day become published and have an influence on the city and world I live in.
No man truly understands it's beauty
Although we do appreciate in different ways
Too many people neglect their duty
Understanding not what is passing away.
...
Most days under most circumstances
I can go through and never be caught off guard.
I can look at my surroundings and know exactly what's coming.
I seldom have to be braced;
...
The two go hand in hand
Sobriety, a curs'ed gift
Anxiety, a resulting pain
Sober and Anxious people walk.
...
Sex is desire expressed
It's joy and pleasure felt
It is a gift to another
and treasure well spent.
...
Like a tiger in a zoo
I sit or pace
Because there is little to do
Meals are provided
