kerry rawlinson . poems . photo-art

I'm an autodidact... writer of poetry & flash fiction, photo-artist & bloody-minded optimist, nibbled into my current shape by a Zambian gestation & Canadian maturation. A fan of avocados, walking barefoot & snug pubs. Inspired by everything; always questioning. Driven to confront boundaries...          & cartwheel.          Please follow my website: kerryrawlinson.com
