Book excerpt: My first book, "One Bad Night in Mexico," was written about five years ago, not because I actually aspired to do so, but mainly because of my younger brother's insistence to do so. I think my resistance to write the book was because of the painful memories that were involved in that near-death experience. However, later on, I even published a second edition of it, with a postscript explaining what had been happening since that horrible incident. As such, since then, I have been completing my present project of finishing the writing of 150 poems to be published in the next two or three months. I am writing this in November of 2015, so maybe by January or February of 2016, this book, "The Practical Poet," will be published. It will consist of 150 poems that I have written over a period of time from 1967 until 2015. The poems reveal a variety of themes and emphases, but many have moral/ethical threads embedded in them, regardless of their type. Some of the poems are written with the obvious intent of humor, others for clarification of a subject, and others for spiritual emphasis. As such, I simply wish for you to read and enjoy my labor of love, as well as occasional stress, which you will likely note in some of the poems. These poems likely reveal much about my ideas, preferences, convictions, beliefs, views of worldly situations, and my personality. However, in reading these poems, I believe that you will not only have an occasional laugh but you might even learn something new in these writings. Anyway, I hope you read and enjoy!
