I’m SLIDing all over today – and it’s eating up my day in big gulps. I’m feeling much like Job today – unlike Job, that results in me becoming more defiant and tenacious So here is my pared-down post for Thursday …
I identify myself as a Pacific Northwest poet. I have been writing poetry since 1976- and yes - I have been using the pen-name Ariel all this time! I can often be found writing in the Willamette Valley, in Pacific forests or along the Coastlines on Oregon.
