What is the aim or goal of your writing: 2nd ed. says, "I am listed with the Michgian Creative Writers in Schools Program. I enjoy factory work and farming the vineyard, because they keep me fit for loving and writing. To avoid blurry crowds of editors and stampedes of significant new writiers, I am turning more and more to writing religious (Christian) poetry, an old genre presently overlooked. Most everyththing is work, but poetry works, and it is one busineess a man cannot will to his chilren."
