My name is R. Craig Prince. I have a degree in Electrical Engineering (a possible mistake) and a minor in Spanish. I am putting poetry here because I enjoy it and in the hopes that it might mean something to someone else.

The writer part of me is a Note Taker on the world, a journalist of everything, the fly on the wall or the rat in the corner. But that part of me has to squeak through my artist's eyes and performer's mouth so those careful notes come out looking like poetry.

It is hard to tell the truths closest to us. You can't even know your own face without a little help. I hope I can be, if not a mirror, than a window. A new perspective.

Thank you for spending some time here. Tell me your stories, let's create together.

If you really like what you read, consider sending me a tip or booking me for something!

Thanks for coming. Curl your tail around your whiskers and wait. Rest, nest, and digest.

If you want to hear my work, I post readings on Instagram.

And if you really like what you read, consider supporting me with a tip or by booking me!

This is Me

What you take from this is yours and what you make from this is yours, but what you leave behind is mine to keep. Such is the contract between writer and reader.
