Memories and More
The basic idea of this book is to share life experiences, and thereby give comfort and encourage smiles, by showing my own and others’ reflections on different life-situations. I am sure that many of them are comparable to those that occur in your life, or to others around you. By sharing experiences, we all learn something. Women are probably sharing thoughts more often than men. Many of the events in this book have also been discussed in female groups. They have not all been personally experienced by me but are the consensus from these fruitful discussions. Now I am pleased to share them with you. Among the experiences discussed in this book: heartbreak, the #MeToo movement and my own experiences, divorce as its complication as a parent, and my own thoughts about the pandemic. I also share with you my thoughts about the aging process that we all must endure, if we are lucky enough to live that long, since life is still a gift given to us all. We ought to remember that and enjoy the journey.

Meanwhile Back at the Nest
Only through dialogue with nature and the animal kingdom can we hope to fathom the human condition. Such conversation enables us to establish a fresh benchmark by which to gauge the significance of what it takes to be human in a truer sense of the word. This collection of poems represents the findings of a man who is still very much a work in progress!
beyond observer’s books
and climbing boys
there nests a bird
that only takes
to wing
to prey
on feeble-minded men
designed for toil
and useful days
but who stand too long
and gaze
gathering sunlight at its tail
it swoops unseen
and strikes
with song caresses
ear and mind
while talons grip
the heart
and choke all talk
this bird
part nightingale
part hawk

M.J.K’s One Hundred Talks on Mary Jane Kelly
In the late spring of 2019, I suffered an accident that put me in a deep coma for days. The details of the event are yet to be clearly explained, since I developed a retrograde amnesia, which doesn't let me remember the previous moments and thus fully recall it. However, the raw facts go like this: I woke up in the middle of the night, in the seaside house where I had travelled for the weekend, went outside and fell out of a nearby three storey balcony on the asphalt in the street. When I came out of the coma, I was diagnosed with a gash in the carotid artery on the right side of my neck.
It immediately came to my mind that what provoked Mary Jane Kelly's death, the last victim of the so-called Whitechapel murders in 1888 committed by Jack the "Ripper" (a sobriquet never mentioned across this book) was precisely the same injury as a result of aggression, although many barbaric ones had been perpetrated on her. Of all the canonical Ripper murders, Mary Jane Kelly's is considered the most gruesome, and also puzzling, of them all. During the long weeks I passed in bed following my accident, Mary Jane Kelly invaded my thoughts and gave me company, offering me talks on herself, always in the form of poems and verses. That's the genesis of this book.

Love Notes From My Phone
‘Walking in the dark abyss of pain and anguish made me feel like there was no hope for survival and that it was not worth it to carry on.
I viewed love through a dark haze at times, and heartbreak embodied my life for many years; I took solace in drunken escapades with men and meaningless sexual experiences.
This is my story; this is my truth; this is the real, raw, emotional, passionate, ecstatic, painful, genuine tale of my life.
This is a tale of longing for so long when, if only I had held my head high and my shoulders upright, I would have realized it was me I was looking for in the mirror all along.’
