THOUGHTS OF A POET IN THE RAIN

I am sitting in a pasture surrounded by alpacas, cows, and horses. The weather has been consistently cold with on and off drizzles. A deer came close last night but took off before a visual confirmation could be made. Will be out looking for sign later this morning. Think it may have been a doe.
In any case I haven’t posted any poetry lately. I am concentrating on book number three and most likely will publish in a few months.
However, my main focus is a narrative non-fiction true crime about a serial rapist/murderer. I am now at 300 pages and climbing. It is very complex. I have traced this guy back to age 14. He is now 42 with a list of crimes and convictions. The most recent was a death sentence for a horrific murder committed on Terra Ceia Island, Manatee County, FL…….. More to come.
I hope everyone had an excellent Christmas and are preparing for a great New Years.
