…public service announcement meets poetic form. Result: recycled art with a message.There once was a girl named Renee
Who recycled things every day
And because less trash
It meant far more cash
For she had more money to play

Kimmy Alan is a wannabe poet from the land of Lake Woebegone. A retired steel worker who was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, Kimmy Alan pursued his love of poetry as a distraction while undergoing chemo and radiation. For him, poetry has proven to be a powerful catharsis, as he is currently in remission. When he isn’t writing he spends time with his four wonderful nieces, whom he says “are driving him to pieces.”
