i am cabbage is a collection of poems both long and short. It takes its title from the first short poem. The volume is divided into nine books or sections. The last poem is from a retired firefighter of twenty years and dedicated to the lost firefighters on 9/11.
For more than forty years I have been a sometimes poet. Thoughts have rattled around this old head of mine like rocks in a tin can.
