I am a retired engineer living in Brisbane, Queensland. My journey exploring the power of poetic narrative keeps me busy now. A poem's primary task is to communicate to its audience. I draw inspiration from my hometown Brisbane and Kushiro, a northern Japanese town where I once lived and worked as a long-time resident.
