This memoir contains 38 poems written between 1987 and 2006. Not all were written in the North End, but all have that north-end influence, because they were written by me. Many of the scrapes on my soul come from there.
The poems are listed alphabetically, with the given year, and a link to the memoir episode that features the poem.
Poetry included in The Wartime House in Shaughnessy Heights

It is my pleasure to share my writing.
