Synopsis

I call this “macho poetry” because pure poetry just doesn’t describe how I write. Now the love poetry that I write is where I indulge my romantic side but I still choose to be simple and readable. When I graduated Georgia State University I chose to go straight into the U.S. Paratrooper Department and later I moved to the Ranger Department. Then I attended college later in my life and people were a little surprised when they found I had a bent toward poetry. However, I have been writing all my life whether songs, poetry or stories. I write down to earth poetry 97% of the time. I don’t like my readers to have to try and figure out what I am saying. So I just call it “macho poetry”, straight words from a man. I hope you like it.
