New to The Street Corner?

Welcome to the Mad Poet’s Street Corner

Welcome

To the mad poets street corner. A site that is as much about poetry as it is life. This site documents my writings, my struggles, my hopes, and dreams. Throughout my strange and wonderful life my writing has been some of the best therapy I’ve ever had. I write just to write sometimes. Others I write a stream of consciousness that helps me work out my problems. May my words inspire you, make you laugh, and, or make you cry.

My fondest wish is that for some of you, that my words may help heal your heart the way they healed mine. In reading my words I pray that if you see yourself reflected there in that you may find hope. Hope in the knowledge that you’re not alone. And hope in the knowledge that all things eventually pass. That there is always a brighter day ahead.

Sometimes it seems it may never come. But rest assured one day it will. I won’t lie to you and tell you that the road is easy. But In the end you’ll be glad you stayed. Come join me in my never ending pursuit of This Awful Beautiful Life.

I’ve Self-Published two books which can be found at the links below.

What Did You Think Would Happen

Through the recurring image of a hand in the flame, this meditation questions our tendency to repeat the same harmful choices, expecting new outcomes. Drawing on the story of Belshazzar, it urges us to read the “writing on the wall” and stop wasting our numbered days on impossible hopes.

I’m Not Dead Yet

This stark, repetitive poem turns “I’m not dead yet” into a battle cry. It follows a voice that keeps pounding against inner and outer walls, embracing pain, failure, and frustration as the price of growth. Survival itself becomes a manifesto: to live is to keep trying to break through.
