Introduction
Poetry Statement
Horizon's Place And Time Meet is a collection of poems that deals with "coming of age" issues, and the struggle to maintain dignity throughout this process. From idealist beginnings, to the harshness of being judged before one is established. To define and decide what is acceptable as a condition for existence. Each event and
remembrance molds and defines one's perception of life. Stepping back and asking, "Is this who I am?" Or "Is this who others have decided I am?" and what is their or my own motivation for this conclusion.

Horizon’s Place And Time Meet
HORIZON’S PLACE AND TIME MEET
In my dreams, I’m a weightless crusader.
I motion and move towards my desired destination.
Soaring, I survey my own horizon -- all
the places I have been and would like to go.
These moments are captured in the morning’s quiet
before the grounded world pulls me back.
I carry my vision throughout the day,
into my dreams, flowing over into early morning
I move away again with the dawning light.
This is where I exist.
I step into the daylight still clothed in
dream’s glowing costume.
Refusing to be contained within the mail; worn
only in half days of nights before dawn, my
dreams seep through the openings, creating a
runway of light towards the place where
horizon and time will meet.
