Biography

A feckless boy lives, writes and plays in the world named by Walter Brueggemann: "the pressure for certitude, absolutism, is a kind of anxious, frightened response to the reality of pain and we think we cannot bear it, so we protect ourselves by imagining we don't know about our own pain......what good artistry has to do is help us see or hear that our certitudes are mostly phoney; life doesn't conform to certitudes; our absolutes are much less than absolute because of the force of stuff that comes underneath our experience, which will not give in to that… (which) protests against that cover up." a feckless boy finds songs and stories and poems under the water. Sometimes they are cousins to one another. Sometimes they visit alone.
