Contained within these pages of this book is a collection of written works that could loosely be called poetry. I have spent my life never following the rules and when it comes to writing, it is no different. Therein you will find everything from haiku to prose poems to limericks to narrative poems, to traditional form poetry with meter and rhyme. You will also find a few quips, sayings, and variations on a new form that I have worked at creating. I wish you a safe trip down this poetic trail that I call my life, dreams, ambitions, and nightmares. I hope you laugh, cry, and are mentally and emotionally satisfied when you close this book.
