1986-1990: These are some of my better early poems. If I wrote poems like this today I might not be happy with them. Nevertheless I think they have a strength and character of their own and are worth including if only to compare with my later work.

In Tow

Climbing walls with me in tow
If you fall I won’t let go
Walk your tightrope — I will too
When you trip I’ll die with you.
