| Bio: | I've been writing poetry for about 10 years now, although I had been in a lull over the last couple years. I'm just really getting into it again. I thought about posting some of my poems in my regular journal, sirwingate, but decided that I would separate them. My primary influences are T.S. Eliot and Edwin McCain, with healthy doses of Allen Ginsburg, Dave Matthews and Hank Williams thrown in there. Most of my stuff is free verse, with very little structure as far as rhyming sequences and stanzas go. I am a huge fan of the prose poetry Ginsburg did with "Howl," but over the years my attempts at that have been poor. The title for this journal comes from the titles of two of my poems "Raven Me" and "Northbound Carolina Highway." Unless I say otherwise, everything in this journal is my original creation. Not that you'd want to, but if you wish to post any of my poetry elsewhere, plase drop me an e-mail. Feedback is also welcomed and appreciated, but if you're going to tell me I suck, please say why. | |||||
