The Old Crone & Con Shoppe

This book is a collection of short poems about love, loss, cats, magic, art, zen, sex, and dreams. Life is a series of moments. Each poem in this book is a moment in time captured for eternity like a photo. There is also an essay at the end of the book entitled "Measuring Out My Life With Cappucino Spoons." In this essay, I discuss how I became a poet. The poems in this collection are a celebration of love and life.

Wassily Kandinsky's

Improvisation Number 27. The

Garden of Love

I thought there is nothing better

than this
