    About this ebook

    These poems are about a varitey of influences and people that crossed my path and made a impression in my soul that found its way on paper. I struggled with the personal nature of my work, but I made a promise to my mother I would put these words to print. So here is the inside to my world and what I see as people make there way into my life even at a glimps.
