Most of these poems (and occasional short story) I have posted over the years on various blogs as I (re)discovered them. This will explain why the articles are dates, rather than the poems’ titles. Some of them even accompany those online musings still. Each has meant something to me at one time, and many continue to resonate. A few I teach.
