The title of my book is one of the poems entitled Life Is Too Short. I added "to Waste" to give the title a more significant meaning. People are getting killed every day at a very young age and a fair number of people were dying of natural causes, and I am sure they have not accomplished their goals when they were killed. I have many pieces in this book, and I hope each and every piece will be comfort and enjoyment to my listeners. This is my second poetry book.

“Another traumatic blow to your head may cause hallucinations ranging from brilliancy to absurdity,” said the brain surgeon at the Landstuhl Medical Center in Germany where Staff Sergeant Travis Morgan first received medical evaluation following a mortar blast in Afghanistan.

Inside this book are written weird tales of the macabre and supernatural, and if you dare to listen to them, they just might take you to a place you wish not to go. You might find yourself in the mystical land of the Killerpillar. You might suffer the venomous sting of the gruesome Homunculus. You might find yourself shivering in an ancient chair you wish you had never sat down in, for you will find no comfort in those cushions, only the dreadful clutches of doom and a slithering through your soul slowly dragging you to madness.

These 40 short stories are a fictional reflection of the day-to-day stories that anyone could be experiencing as they walk the daily walk of life in this modern time in America, in the beautiful park with the oaks.

Gateway to More of Him was written for the hungry heart and for those who want God’s word to come alive and are crying out for a deeper walk with him.
