Bio Sketch
LeRoy
Gorman lives in Napanee, Ontario. His poetry, much of it minimalist and
visual, has appeared in publications and exhibitions worldwide. He is
the author of two dozen poetry books and chapbooks.
Within such a short space (10 words and 12 syllables), Gorman vividly sketches one's love/life and death. And the symbolically rich and emotionally evocative last line lifts the poem up a notch.
