Lewis Raynes Biography

Hi, thoughtful poetry and confronting art..... and mathematics, are my interest. Have been writing, poetrying and painting for about 20 years and mathematicing for about 25. Of course we all have thoughts about random stuff often enough, I like putting those random thoughts into verse making sense or putting them on canvas to be a provoker. I prefer all styles of poetry depending upon my mood.

By the way, unless i state that a poem actually occurred to me, then they are all made up, fiction, whimsical, not true events, they are not biographies and only touch on uncomfortable topics to make the reader question things. I believe poetry has the ability to make us question our own morals intimately, like how the bard made us question suicide in Romeo and Juliet.

p.s. the bard didn't do suicide.

My art is   www.facebook.com/popartwagga

What I write in poetry does not necessarily reflect the opinions or morals of the NSW department of education...

So many distractions. It helps to have a good idea with beginning, middle and end. Often times, you have to force yourself to write -- however, once started (if you don't hit a dead-end) the words begin to flow and you even have some fun.

I can write any time day or night whenever my stroppy muse decides but I never sit down and force myself to write I would never be happy with the result:-) hugs Jan xx

I've had sleep issues ever since my hubbies cancer surgery - thank goodness I started writing - I used to get up at silly oclock to get my lines down when they came into my head, but now it is a little more controlled but I keep a notepad with me just in case:-) hugs jan xx
