I’ve been writing poems, off and on, since about 1993. I’d say many ended up turning out pretty good; others, not so much. But even the so-so ones tended to crystallize an emotional moment in my life, so I personally consider them valuable enough to archive here.

Wherever possible, I have organized these poems by the date they were finished, so the archive will date back through 20+ years, when I’ve completed the data transfer. Please remember that I was in my teens when many of these were written, so their quality and subject matter often had a lot to do with my development throughout that period. (And when i was talking about having a crush on a 13-year-old, I myself was still barely 18.)

I’m still figuring out WordPress, so for now, the left-hand column in the poetry category is organized alphabetically, although the “feed” in my poetry section remains chronologically organized with the most recent works on top. Bear with me as i try to subjugate my webspace to my (tech-ignorant) will.

All content in the poetry section of this website is Copyrighted and my own original work. No one may represent this work as their own or use it without my express permission. I would appreciate it if anyone who wishes to link to any of my work would ask me beforehand. Thank you!
