For your information ...
Dan Byrnes, born 1948, has been writing poetry since his late teens and is now aged 74. He has had relatively few poems published in Australia but those published are so marked. A few of his poems have been published in USA and are so marked. He decided a few years previous to 2018, why not try to leave behind 1000 poems? A round 1000?
One result is this presentation of poetry. Enjoy. - Ed
