I am a 30 year old man from Arkansas. I work for Riceland Foods as a grain elevator foreman. It's dangerous and unhealthy work. I am a husband of ten years and a father of two. I've been writing poetry for over 15 years...a lot in the past 2. I never studied poetry and still haven't. Mine tends to just come out however. I'm learning a lot on this site, however. Aside from writing, I enjoy wood carving, rustic furniture making, cane and walking stick craft, metal working, fitness, sports, fishing, and hunting...yeah, I know, typical country boy there at the last...oh well...I've learned to embrace it. I've travelled to many places outside of the U.S.A., Canada, and Mexico. I've also been to Korea and Japan, and have travelled extensively in Hong Kong and China...not as a tourist. I said that to say this...in all the places I've been...I'd rather be here, and remain a country boy.
