He is the co-host of the JAVA Junction Open Mike at the corner of Greenbrier Parkway and Kempsville Road every Wednesday night at 8 p.m. The following poem is from his book of poetry Likeness of Being.

Four Children at the Parade

A little boy rides
his father's neck
to glimpse
the passing procession

While the daughter rides
her mother's hip
and learns
the ladies' lessons

The infant rides
the stroller
and pulls
the red balloon

But the drummer hides
inside her womb
and knows the band
plays soon

Both victimized and spoiled by rhyme, Im also thrilled by story line. Its clear, its there, and food for thought. But overall,youve got me caught...on to yo's thinkings.

Thank you, Mr. Nathan.
