ABOUT THE POET:
Lefty McGee is fond of cigars, whiskey, and words. Not to say that he is an
aficionado of any of the three. He still tends to bite the end off of cigars
rather than use a cutter. Whiskey may be drunk from the glass or straight
from the bottle with or without ice and is typically "the good stuff." Words
he treats with an equal lack of reverence; tending towards a less refined
delivery, in other words, smutty. He enjoys taking an innocuous phrase and
offering an erotic twist on it.
Because he has a short attention span most of his writing has been limited
to short works. Some would call it poetry, he prefers to call it blurts, as
they tend to be short, spontaneous and in his opinion, totally lacking in
any social redeeming value. But that is okay for him as he tends to forget
the words as soon as they are written. According to Lefty, once written, the
words belong to reader rather than the writer.
Lefty’s alter ego is a staid, conservative engineer with a BSEE, MBA and
lots of other initials after his name that are utterly meaningless out of
context. He designs lots of different technical elements related to
Telecommunication Infrastructures that have little impact on either poetry
or erotica. He currently resides in Kansas where he continues to make life a
living Heck (too lazy to make it a living Hell) for his wife, two sons and
neurotic wiener dog. |
