Musings of a Madman is a compilation of poetry stretching from a meager existence in New York's East Village with Allen Ginsberg and other such poets to Paris and environs and finally Colombia. The poems sketch a life style of a lonely man to a final relationship with Adriana, muse, Colombian Princessa and finally wife and a life in Westchester as a jazz musician and poet. It is an expose of the very guts of the creative mind with its madness, its hunger its suffering, culminating in a crescendo within existence where the end does justify the means. The poems are extremely diverse, some easygoing some serious, most devouring the beauty of life and its prize and pain yet all capturing the verve and passion of Greenwich Village in the early 60's.
