Biography

I currently reside in Prairieville, Louisiana. In the 1960s and early 1970s I had the privilege of working on three family ranches in south central Wyoming. I worked on Lee McQuay's place, the Diamond Ranch and on Howard and Audrey Brokaw's 3 Circle Ranch. The 3 Circle is where I worked the longest. I started out working in the hay fields. Through the patience and tutelage of those I worked for, especially Howard Brokaw and his foreman Del Esquibel, I progressed to being a cowboy/ranch hand. A lot of my stuff is from these experiences.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
