INFORMATION
Walter Jones is what ever I choose to be, I am a writer, today. I have had many titles. Spent most of my life in Wisconsin, traveled the world, tasted many facets of life, father died when I was young, tour Vietnam, three grown children and a foster daughter, two still at home, married late in life, little I can not do, expect to leave this world a better place for me having been here. I write for pleasure, teaching, hope but mostly love of my fellow man. Each piece holds multiple messages, each person will take at least something from what they read, many will find more than they care to. More on the person, I strongly believe that the creativity of the writer is limited by the laws, rules, "norms" established by the literate, as Samuel Clemens is reported to have said, the populous buy the books, not the librarians. I strive to create images play with words, experiment with form, use technique to accomplish tasks, visualize, use verb and adverb phrase, play games with tense, split modifiers, use words that deliberately convey Multiple meanings, work the mind, write as the mind thinks, leave out words we have been trained to pass over to glean information, interrupt flow to present ideas. Treat a work as if it were my child, give it the freedom to grow and become something great, in spite of my guidance. A bit more:I am preacher(not a minister, just one who preaches) and I used to
be a problem when I am stoned(drunk) don't do that anymore" From a Kris Kristofferson song, I
am a lover of life and the people in it. I am an instructor, I am a child of the world. I am a reporter, I am a student I am an engineer, technical writer, speech writer, poet, team leader, designer, good person, overloaded, but enjoying every minute of life.
He is an accomplished poet and is currently at the #8 spot on this years ranked poet listing.

walter l. jones: The world is filled with life, here I find the beauty through the eyes of the artist. I owe a great deal to everyone but in particulair to Mino Yause, whose art has inspired many of my poems.. Walt
