I'm new to the workshop though I did post a comment and a poem before I came to the place of introductions-- sorry. I've been many a thing in my day-- but now am settled into poetry. For a while I had a fine time teaching in academia but soon became restless with the standard life. I became among other things a civil rights activist, a homesteader, a family-farm dairy farmer, a hand-to-mouth city dweller, a bookstore owner, a muckraker in a small corrupt town in Arkansas, and-- while dropping out of law school-- an unacknowledged poet. Now I am getting serious about poetry.
