Writing for me is like having a conversation with the pages, they only ever respond with understanding. Unburdened by anything, they have a limitless capacity to absorb the onslaught of words, which I try to sling together like a string of lights in the darkness. Regardless of topic, or how heavy or black the content at times may seem. The hope is that once connected, they emit light in some fashion. Even when I can't see it I believe they must be shining somewhere. I haven’t written in anything other then a duty notebook for years. I've experienced too much to believe in coincidence and in light of that I hope the reasons for which I have been writing again, serve more then just my own need to vent.

"Red" has been a relentless first responder for over 15 years. The chaos and calm of those experiences have led to this small collection of poetry and other rambles pertaining to walking the often darker sides of human nature and still finding the resolve and purpose to carry on.
