I think of myself sometimes as an emotion sculptor more than as a poet. In that I write to shape the emotions of the reader and not to fit words to rhyme and meter. I try to write poems that are not depend-ent on the language I write with. These poems were all wrote in my sixty-fourth year or in what people say are my twilight years. I find this amusing since as I write this the oldest man in America is about fifty years older than me. But it makes for a nice book title.

I do not know why most poets write poetry but I know why I do so. I write because a thought gets in my head and bounces around till I write it down. You could say that I don't try to write but that I am forced to write. Now I do try to write "e;good"e; poetry that people will enjoy reading, but I don't try to write poems for people to read. Most people find that they like some of my poems and hate others of them.
