The Wanderer: A collection of Poetry written by Barry A. Pease

**6/21/2000 Update**
I have fixed all of the broken links on the website. I have also added 3 poems. This section is far from completed -- it needs a lot of work, but will hold off until I do my wedding site.
**UPDATE**

Within my mythology, a long while ago, I created a character named The Wanderer. This was a persona, a facet of myself that I used to walk throughout various emotions and experiences, while somehow remaining detached enough to observe them. I believe I created him based on my readings of Emerson and understandings of his Transparent Eyeball with a wish to observe the beauty in things as it really is, not filtered through a lifetime of experiences (good or bad). He is some semblance of the wise man that walks through my mind.

For now, poems are just listed by date, from most recent to lease recent. In the future, I will try to read through them all and categorize them at a later time.

One of my all-time favorites: The Journey is one that I think describes a young man dealing with all of the inner demons and coming of age... in a very abstract way, I suppose.
