Inspired by the odes of John Keats, I would like to write poetry which touches the soul. My early poetry is about imagery and beauty. Then I moved onto a period of trying to create mood with the artist Paul Klee’s remark in mind: ‘Art is not about reproducing the visible. It renders visible.’ This followed with some verses trying to describe depression. Finally, there are some abstract poems which try to convey what happens when we reach the end of language.

He would like to change the world with his work, influencing teenagers before they fall into the trap of the adult world where apathy prevails.
