About Me
About me
Candlewitch is my better half. I am a retired software engineer that is more comfortable writing in the Python programming language than in English. However, I do foray into that area occasionally. Poetry had not been a part of my life until Candlewitch introduced me to it. Mostly, I read Sci-Fi and Fantasy. As I grow older, poetry is becoming more a part of me, so here I am to see what grows.
I've also started another project utilizing AI to create whimsical images that parody a wide variety of subjects. All images are of pigs as they appear in my imagination. They are displayed on https://www.mythramuse.com/PorcineProfessions/.
Location: Wisconsin, USA, USA
Favorite Poets
Candlewitch: I've been reading her poetry for over forty years.
Paul Simon: "The Sounds of Silence" got me interested
but "Patterns" and "A Poem On The Underground Wall" really hooked me.
Gordon Lightfoot: I acquired his "Sundown" album while in the Navy. "Circle of Steel" resonated with me and I have been an avid fan since.
