Disco Poem

A while ago I took part in a call for work with a disco theme. I was paired with an artist who would paint a portrait to fit with my written work. I was paired with the wonderful Sharon Pomales. You can see some of her work here:

I wrote about an elderly man with Alzheimers who often refers back to his disco days and the love of his life. Last week my post was published in issue 16 of iARTistas. Sharon's painting is featured in this issue as well but my work was paired wtih another very talented painter, Amber Foote. I must say, her portrait of a man with disco lights reflections crossing over his face works well with my poem.

This is the first time I've been featured in any of the magazines by this publisher and am very honored. My work is featured on page 19. To check it out (and to preview the entire issue, which features some great work by some amazing artists) click on the following link which will take you to an interactive pdf (complete with music):
