Poetry

I try to follow the mantra: Keep it simple. Poetry is the more artful and spiritual form in any language, and as such, I believe many poems have the ability to speak from and to the human spirit—for want of a better term, the soul. In this realm, education and sophistication are perhaps not the most important things. I think rather simplicity and truth, if these forces can be heard.
