The Border at DouglasAs a Canadian living in the US, I'm often stunned and dismayed by the extent of governmental influence in people's lives in this country. I've expressed this as concisely as I can in this poem. -
Silver ButtonsThis flowed forth on its own late one night as these pieces often do. It reflects the internal work we all must do through the vehicle of a beloved childhood pastime. The poem was written as a centered 2-D sculpture upon the page. -

Sublime MemoriesI grew up in West Vancouver, British Columbia. I spent all my spare time hiking, rock-climbing (before there was equipment) and loving the raw beauty of the coastal mountains. These are some of my happiest memories of that time.
