September 2015
I'm a husband, a father, a grandfather, an uncle, a friend, a pianist, a composer; I'm a poet, a painter, a piano tuner, and a retired teacher. I'm a relatively observant Jew and a diehard socialist (who doesn't support Israeli policies in regard to Palestinians). I'm 64 years old and live in NYC with my wonderful wife, Susan. And even though I don't have a college degree in English, I am the editor of the best online poetry journal in the world.
After a Visit to the Cardiologist
Metaphysical and physical —
at once the human heart;
singer of the love song,
keeper of the pulse.
Magical — material —
of essence each impart;
without the one the other's done
and then there's nothing else.
