   Smith's Networking
Publishing - Writer - Poet
Comments on my poetry have ranged from "intelligent, thought-provoking and beautiful" to "man, you are one sick basturd." From Jim Lang: "In poetry's whorehouse of many rooms, you belong in the philosophical-scientific wing, with us."
Publishing - Art - Other
Mixed-media assemblage philosophy: Pick stuff up. Glue stuff down. Exhibit it. Others have said of my work - "Very cornellduchampianesque." "love his contagion of undiluted underground art."

I’ve traveled an odd and variegated journey since being born in the Rocky Mountains in the panhandle of Idaho in 1946. For example:

  • I've been poet 43 yrs, artist 42 yrs, editor/publisher of ArtCrimes 21 yrs, AgentOfChaos.com five yrs, Lady K’s co-blogger on WalkingThinIce.com one yr
  • I've run from the cops 10 times, got away 9

  • There is but one law: do as you would be done

Yes, Lensman was part of my early sci-fi influences... not as big as van Vogt, Heinlein, Asimov, Sturgeon, & some others... but they all mattered.  ^..^

Thank you so much for those generous words. I was hoping you would enjoy my reading. Sorry I missed you and your wife's readings at Lix and Kix last week. I was dealing with moving woes that particular evening. At this moment, I am still very optimistic about my move. But I will certainly miss the Cleveland poetry scene that is graced with so many gifted and caring poets like you.

Peace & Poetry,
