THIS IS MY LIFE'S LITERARY OFFERING SO FAR. I HAD TO ALPHABETIZE ALL MY POEMS BECAUSE THERE WERE SO MANY AND I NEEDED A WAY TO LOOK AT ALL THEIR NAMES AT ONCE. THE DATES ARE ALL CORRECT, BUT ALL POEMS HAVE BEEN REWRITTEN FROM THEIR ORIGINAL DATES FOR SUBMISSION PURPOSES.
I COMMITTED MYSELF TO THE POET LIFE IN 1985 AND NEVER LOOKED BACK. THESE POEMS START ROUGHLY FROM THE EARLY 90s AND CONTINUE TO THE PRESENT.
SOME OF THE EARLIEST WORKS WERE TOO JUVENILE [AMATEURISH] TO EVEN GIVE A GOOD REWRITE, ALTHOUGH I DO HAVE SOMETHING REWRITTEN FROM 1987 IN THIS LIST. THERE ARE PERIODS IN MY LIFE THAT I DID NOT WRITE MUCH, SUCH AS 1994-1999, BECAUSE I WAS TOO BUSY JUST STAYING ALIVE.
THE YEARS 2000-01 WERE THE BEGINNING OF MY "PSYCHIC SAFARI." UNFORTUNATELY A LOT OF WRITINGS FROM THIS PERIOD WERE DESTROYED.
ALSO SOME WRITING FROM 2006-2010 IS MISSING BECAUSE I WOULD WRITE DIRECTLY IN MY BLOG AND NOT MAKE COPIES.
BUT…LOOKING AT THIS LIST, I DON'T THINK ANYTHING WILL BE MISSED!
