The Vintage Relics Of My Checkered Past

My name is Mike Ash, I have been creating word art my entire life, in kindergarten I won an award for my short story, Mr Radio Man, then when I was 12 I typed & printed up two books of poetry & handed them out everywhere I went, their names were, Utopia & The Paintings Of Life. When I was 16 & in highschool(before I dropped out) I was a part of a poetry club called Dead Poets Society & a few of my pieces were published in a book that was distributed all over the school. My mom was a writer, my grandmother, Nini, who was blind, would write poetry in her head, memorize it & recite it correctly & beautifully. I was destined to be a wordsmith, oh, yes indeed....
