Description
xAs the title states, this work includes both short stories and poetry in various styles. Short stories include a tale about a house that has a very subtle way of eliminating its owners. Another story follows the route of a taxi driver as he makes his morning passenger pick-up and drop-off on one of the larger cities on the distant Planet of Mulgroon. Then there is a story about an alien on our world and the pursuit he faces from those who have come to believe that he is a vampire. Also included is a reworking of that familiar children's fairy tale, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, which provides some insight into the true tale and, of course, into Baby Bear's three older siblings. Poetry in this work includes several longer poems that I like to refer to as story poems. These are all written in free verse format and their main themes are from the science fiction genre. I have also included some regular non-rhyming poetry on various themes as well as numerous pieces of mostly rhyming lyrical poetry that cover such subjects as love and romance. Please read and enjoy!

xI really started my writing career when, as a PVA NSO, my supervisor asked me to write a piece of poetry concerning the Moving Wall (a half-size replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall located in Washington, DC between the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial). At first I was hesitant since, in the past, I had found little success with writing. However, with his encouragement, I finally completed a poem entitled "Ode to the Vietnam Veteran". And then, to my surprise, it was deemed good enough for me to read at the opening ceremonies of the Moving Wall there in Wichita, KS. From there I continued to write more poetry. I even started to try writing novels and short stories. I'm still working on about 10 different novels and another collection of short stories ranging from a man who has the chance to travel back in time to have a do-over of his life to a young man in love (so he thinks) who is trying to write a song for the love of his young life to the Town of Redemption, which is anything but.
