rain
in the evening, the rain falls/ punctuating the pergola roof/ what if rain/ was the language of God/ the tongue of tactile vernacular/ we wait within the silences of drought/ sitting with our commission and omission/ afraid of the deluge of the flood/ holding a cup to catch holy water/ to slake our thirst
I am an English teacher and drummer/percussionist with an interest in literary pursuits, creative endeavours, rhythmic permutations, theological amplifications and comedic outbursts.
Here you will find my creative detritus: articles on living a creative life and writing explorations.
And other ideas I have snaffled from the papers stuck on the fridge door.

My collaborative epistolary novel, "Post Marked: Piper's Reach," written with Jodi Cleghorn (@JodiCleghorn) out now via Vine Leaves Press.
Come and browse through the library; there is no need to be silent.
