small volume of poems entitled, "A Coney
Island Of The Mind", the literary world was

his free verse spoken word poetry. The book is

it grasps the meaning of life, by learning from
the depth of experience. From this experience
can a man learn to live a meaningful life, and
it is this poignant notion that his small books
of poetry conveys with the sincerity of the heart
from the inner stirrings of genius.
