Taste the poetry of Bill Watkins, alcoholic poet. "I like life, citizens of Rome, nothing's wrong until we think too much, adult games forgetting that philosophy that to get to heaven (peace of mind) one must be like a child."About the Author: Shaped and formed by alcoholism, along with a love for politics and service discouraged by age discrimination, Bill had a spiritual awakening in 1995, and has been on the road of truth, creativity and self-discovery ever since. Born in Pasadena, California in 1972, Bill grew up in nearby San Marino until age five. At six, his parents divorced-and from then until 12-step recovery found him in 1995, Bill turned to excessive sports and alcohol to compensate for a spiritually void life. Poetry came to Bill in his recovery life, and he founded www.travelingpoet.net to self-publish and explore passion for rare poems. His poetry and prose books are being distributed and sold in hope of stirring young people to better lives than his own.
