About Me
Hi, I'm a guy from Holland. I started writing poetry about 5 years ago, to express my feelings and thoughts, to revail what lives inside me. I had already written short stories by means of therapy, discovered that prose didn't cover my wishes, and slowly I switch to poetry. i enjoy to write form-poetry, the Celtic poem-forms, free verse, haiku. 'till now I have 2 small self-published booklets by lulu.com, and a few poems are published into an international magazine. Never really content with my poems, I keep learning new ways of imagery, forms etc.
My life: after an crappy childhood I had several jobs, worked into stores, working places, ships, behind a packet-machine, in gardens, followed a course in highschool, currently studying for assitant-vet. I lives with two cats, love nature, science, languages, history, Chinese martial arts, playing chess.
