Abstract

As the reader will see both the stories and poems which follow draw from everyday experiences , occurrences , and thoughts , They are not designed to fictionalize life as much as to portray it realistically. In doing so the purpose of my writing is to awaken in the reader a sense of the poignancy of everyday experience--not only of others but also of his own . They are an attempt , then, to expand not only my own consciousness but also the personal consciousness of my readers.
