Richard began writing poetry at the age of twelve, after an assignment by his 6th grade teacher. In his twenties, Richard read voraciously history and literature and wrote 40 sonnets to improve his writing's flow His journey then as a young poet/family man is documented in Northspur, an autobiographical journal. In his thirties he wrote his first chapbook while working blue collar jobs to support his growing children and had little time to write, yet was prolific. When Richard wrote in his forties, his long poems were prominent. His fifties were filled with surrealistic poetry in the third person with his vivid imagination. Today closing his sixties, he writes with ease every day without thinking much, he can sit and compose a poem in 5 minutes that would have taken hours and days before. Richard writes " the most painful experiences in a lighter tone on the nothingness of this spectacle drama", says a literary critic. This is the third collection of his work.
