Book Cover & Preview Text
Nobody’s Drone
Confetti falling.
The Nighttime, too.
On the fringe of a dream.
Lost in the blue:
(akin—to nobody’s drone)

is LIFE at it’s best;
when living doesn’t have time
for an unwanted guest.

Perhaps... you too will find out that you are an "August-messenger", and together we may just re-inspire the grand revival of (bongo and bass guitar background music), with the elan of spoken poetry—to be an art form that will live on.
