India Love

Originally from New York, I've lived in Waterbury, CT for the past 16 years. While I've written some poetry over the years, my recent exposure to the writings and poetry of Charles Bukowski has motivated me to begin writing again. Bukowski's style is similar to my own and I'm inspired that my unusual, justice-seeking, reality-based writing might have a place in the world. Most importantly, I intend to write poems that recognize the City of Waterbury as more than a transient city filled with addicts, dangerous streets, and undesirable spaces. I want my poems to uplift this struggling City. Now known as 'Dirty-Water' my writing will provide a bridge for Waterbury to become known as 'Living Waters'.
