So I was lucky enough to get through to this competition.

Love a beer and other things that remove my inhibition.

I’m taller than average, a lanky lad. Passively intense.

Scholar find your courage – there’s comfort in silence.

Always be a long locked lout avoid the clippers and the sheared

hands in pockets, write it down before it has disappeared. 

Sleeves rolled up, full of thought, early before I’m punctual -  

beliefs hold up but get confused. Determined and dysfunctional.

Calm and clear or hyperactive let the moment choose the mood

Face my fears, became proactive allow the internal to exude,

lyrical with wit and pun, photos, poems, peaceful inner be. 

A swim nerd and a thinker – and I guess that nutshells me.
