Summary

My poems have simply kept coming over the years, often inspired by an impactful observation, conversation, or element of music, or as an emotional urge that simply spouts out in written words to present itself.

Almost every poem here was once at least the length of a legal pad page but has been pared down on every pass to speak to its individual essence only. Always, the intent has been to pin down the truth of my feelings being experienced at that time or over time.

Primary Colors is meant to speak to the colors we may ascribe to our most visceral and immediate moments of flushed emotion, e.g. infatuation, grief, and joy. Some of the poems here may speak to specific colors, but are not meant to be definitive.

Some others seek to capture a reminiscence or reflection, and all collectively serve as a record of this past phase of my life, the kernels of wisdom gained, and perhaps some insight in common with the listener.
