About
the Author
I guess this is
where I am supposed to talk about myself, even though it is one of
my biggest discomforts. Then I suppose this is where I have to show
that I have a big head or something like that. Well I don't have a
big head, I don't wear a suit and tie I don't wear black plastic
glasses held together with tape, and you couldn't give me a pocket
protector to save your life. As a matter of fact I am mostly seen in
a black Tee-shirt, blue jeans and work boots with my hair blown
where ever the wind decides to put it.
I started writing this
stuff called poetry back in my early teens but I threw them away as
fast as I wrote them, I didn't want them to be seen by anyone. There
was enough laughter and mockery in my life then and there wasn't room for
anymore.
Every now and then a
few found there way to family members and friends of family members
to be criticized. Some thought of them being
good and said I should have been a writer, some said music, while
others felt I should keep them and my feelings to myself.
With those that I have allowed to be
seen or wrote for special occasions were one thing but far and few
between. There were a few
writings that I have remembered where I have rewritten, then there
are those I have saved in the last ten years. These writings are my
feelings, the way I see the complexity of love and life
as well as my
way of dealing with life.
The following pages will
tell the story of the complicated life of The Woodsman.
