An Interview with Published Poet Alex Ness
Alex Ness has written poetry since first grade. He lived mostly in the state of Minnesota, with stops in Wisconsin, North Carolina, North Dakota, Texas, and Arizona. He loves comics, cats, books, art, music, and his family. He has degrees from two universities in history and with areas of political science, but his education was never about doing something to get a job, it was instead what made him who he became today...
MARCH 10000 DWARVES!
March 10000 Dwarves
In unison and sturdy gait
Never out of line
Always testing fate
Never feeling fear
Drums pounding
Voices chanting
Even when death is near
Hearts beating
Orcs bleeding
Axes raised above
There is no defeating
The 10000 ever march
And yet, they ever march
The ghosts of past battles
With the echoes of the warriors
Blood flows in hoary channels
While their bones turn dust and scatter
In the passing of a generation
hope returns as memories fade
And the Orc wars go on.

The easiest way to explain what I am doing is telling tales, some real, some imagined, all meant to entertain, without any sort of underlying guile. While allegory is fine, it isn't my goal. In fact, when I write in this style, fashion I come closest to channeling information, not from my soul but from a different place in my being. This is not meant to suggest I am relaying real events, coded real events, or symbolic real events, simply, that getting rid of the world outlook that interferes with telling a story, can only happen by just writing and letting the words and stories happen upon their own.
