On December 31, 2001, my Jeep was repossessed. I'd been out of work for
six months and could not make the payment. On the night it was taken, I
began writing poetry to try to make sense of the situation and of my life at the
time. I wrote fairly consistently over a two month period. I still
write, just not as often, but that could change at anytime. Below
are the poems I wrote during that time.
Three of these poems recently made it into the
