Artist's Statement
Poetry lives at the intersection of the inner and outer landscapes, the mandorla, or meeting place, of the intuitive and observable. I write to bring these spheres into correspondence
and conscious relationship. When the poem is "on", it honors the invisible through the visible, nurturing both soul and spirit.
