I know I’m in my 60’s . I was born in’45. Not that I’m forgetful, but every year I gotta do the math. Like to play improvised music, sometimes painting, and especially like to think about the nature of things. I’m drawn to the theme of “the congruity of incongruity“. I turned to poetry because I’m a failed prose writer---ok, so I got bored with elongated thoughts and wanted to surprise myself--which sometimes happens.
