These are the books you will find some of my work in. They are both poetry books from my connections with Poets Live in Scranton Pennsylvania.
I’ve had the distinct pleasure of being published in two poetry anthologies along with several other amazing authors. Here they are pictured below!

A father came home to a house filled with death. Three children and a stranger gone his wife circled the drain. Pandemic Of Ignorance

The moments when you’re graceful,
Hanging upside down from your cage.
The moments when you are goofy,
Bitch slapping your brother then sitting on his head.
