From 1959 when I wrote my first poem to today, my world view has evolved as I, as do we all, try to grasp the impact of humanity as it buoys or extinguishes individuals and our spaceship planet Earth. I date and identify where I wrote some of my poems to provide readers with points of reference. My approach to poetry is ever evolving but two central principle still guide me: less is almost always more, and, I try to use words and grammar my west Texas mother could understand. Li Po is my hero. REVIEW All of your poetry is so good I wish I could express myself as well as you do. I really enjoyed Ancient Stevedore, The Cave above Chocol and the Desert Tortoise. I could see them all so well. Thank you for Curiosities in Cultures Looking forward to reading your next book of poems. Mary Schmidt
