The Matt Poems: On Two Years Under Alzheimer's

I am a retired minister from the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) living in the hills of the Northern Panhandle of West Virginia. During the course of my ministry, I began writing poetry; that was in the early 1980s. The process and product alike have been favorable to me. I began a few years of attendance on the online poetry worship Desert Moon Review in April 2004, finding that involvement helpful to me as a poet. I live in retirement with my wife of nearing forty-seven years, a pair of dogs, and a handful of cats. A pair of ducks adopted us in the summer of 2014 and seem content to hang around.
