In My Element

To all who are, or have been, engaged in the struggles 
of meaning discovery. I invite you to share in the poetry 
of a more fulfilling life.

“In My Element” is an experience in emerging from the
shell. It is a commitment to the ideal that the sharing
of poetry should be an experience in empowerment.
Here is an invitation to leave behind “The Old Days On
Sisyphus’ Hill.”

Poetry is the dynamic relationship between persons and
words. Each acts upon the other to create order out of
chaos. To shine light in former dark places.

The individual exists in a perpetual state of change. We
are spirit expressed in flesh and blood, evolving toward
the ultimate revelation of the Eternal Self. The person
who becomes consciously involved with the process of
Self-evolution becomes a poet. In this experience, poetry
is what we do. It is the craft of creating and re-creating
the environment of our evolution. That environment is
verily the world in which we live, and move, and have our
being.

Words are the incarnation of our thoughts. A word is the
dynamic in which we attempt to name reality. Words are
the sounding off of the spirit. A word is the animus by
which we ride the wind in our effort to capture the
moment.

We are bows. Words are arrows. Poetry is the art of the
hunter in search of that illusive beast we call meaning.
My words and I are lovers, and all’s fair game…in love.
