When I Distinguish
" I begin when I separate
my thoughts from yours
to give credit
where credit is due"
Gratified
"it is with a wry smile that I write this,
an acknowledgement of the various ways this may be taken
but I do believe that those who have witnessed my journey,
acknowledged or not,
would be proud;
I certainly am. "

The poems in this collection capture the fragility and strength of glass by honestly reflecting on society, friendship, healing and identity. "Of That Which Makes Glass" is at times humorous, angry, fragile and strong; a reflective and evocative poetry book of our time.
