Feeding the bears

This collection consists of two parts--nineteen poems, and seven short stories. In each section I have attempted to move from an innocent perspective to a more experienced one. The poetry is primarily autobiographical and explores moments and memories that I think might prove to be significant if investigated. The short stories cover a wide range of subjects and characters. They basically deal with family, friend and love relationships and the lonliness and pain that is often unavoidable in them. They move from a lighter tone to a more serious one.
