Dear Sketchbook
Editor,
I thought I'd mention that some of
my poetry has been accepted for
display at the New Westminster Art Gallery in BC for October. A
booklet containing anti-war poetry from around the world will be
created and sent to Iceland for inclusion in the John Lennon
Peace
Tower. To be included in such an undertaking is monumentally
important to me - as our world continues to spin out into more
concentric circles, away from a balanced center, I find myself
acting
as witness to the turmoil surrounding me. If someone reads my
words
and is touched by them, then I have truly left a positive mark.
