    About this ebook

    One poem. "Humming, whirring, gyring and groaning machines orbit about the central power; frightened, I sleep." With words alone, we fight the armies of the world everywhere we go - we want peace, and we are the immortal human spirit.

    Single and attached to a wonderful woman, I spend my spare time at the laptop these days, trying to get some nouns and verbs out for publication.I see writing as a hobby - hopefully, since I enjoy it, there will be an audience out there that also enjoys reading my work.Though I'm not a serious writer, I do welcome the feedback of reviews. Whether the reader is pleased or disappointed with my effort, I can use reviews to adjust my approach.Best advice I received when I was young: "Read!"
