Poetry: Don Scheller is a poet, teacher, and visual artist, who makes his home in Buffalo, NY. The images and poems included in this volume were created independently of each other, over the course of 40 years. Scheller's sometimes dark, always thought-provoking, black & white photographs visually reinforce the introspective message in each of his poems, including his long forms and his "almost Haiku" short pieces. His deep sensitivity and wry humor are apparent throughout.

Along the way -- Faithful delusion -- Critically creating -- Relating...sometimes loving -- Memories & loss thereof -- Caffeinated views -- Short pieces (...almost Haiku, 20210-2011).
