I HAVEN'T WRITTEN A LOT of poetry lately, because I found
that I can often get the same fix from writing fiction. However, I used to write a lot of it, so I decided
to post a bibliography and links to some of it here. I plan to post more
and will of course keep you updated about new publications.
On the bottom of this page
are links to more of poetry on other pages and sites.
But first, a list of my poetry that's been published. Within that, you'll
see links (titles in blue) to some of those poems that'll open new windows. I hope you enjoy them!
Poetry collection:
Pictures from a Trip
Fall 1990. My first poetry collection, literally word-drawings

spray-painted covers and pen illuminations. I had a lot of fun putting it
together and still have several copies; if you want a signed first edition, let me know!
