Statement from the author:

"When I write a poem, I don't seek to necessarily constrain that poem by any formal poetic style or technical form, I just write imagistically. I write in a nonce and a free form style, sometimes more of a narrative style. I write out the words as they sound right to me, while trying to stay true to the intent of the poem and what I am trying to convey to the reader. I prefer to allow the reader to understand what the poem has to say, not guess. Then, the reader can interpret and contemplate what it means to them, they don't have to speculate, just hopefully enjoy what the poem was trying to say.
