Dr. John WorldPeace JD Poems 1977.Dr. John WorldPeace JDDESCRIPTION FOR CREATESPACE FOR JWP POEM BOOKSI am publishing 2400 +/- poems from 1970 through 2017. I have published some other books of selections of these poems. I expect to have them all published by the end of September. Search for all my books under Dr. John WorldPeace JD.Dr. John WorldPeace JD NOTESI was born in 1948, in Houston, Texas.In October 1970, I wrote my first poem of the poems that I am publishing. Over the next 48 years, I wrote about 2400 poems. Most of the poems could be looked at as a short biography of my life; one page snap-shots of what I was thinking or experiencing in the moment.I have at times published a selection of the poems. In June 2018, I began to self-publish the selections of poems and all the poems I have ever written to date (about 2400) in chronological order using Amazon's CreateSpace. There will be about 30 books in total. I jumped around and did not publish the various books in chronological order. I expect to finish this project in August 2018.I will continue to write poems and in fact, will probably increase the volume of poems over the coming years. I also intend to pick a theme like Santa Fe, New Mexico and write a book about my impressions there. The number of possible subjects is infinite.I have also published a book of Haiku which are 3 line poems with 5, 7, 5 syllables per line. I would expect to publish a book of these poems annually and also some theme books of Haiku.My genetics and my current state of health make me confident, barring some accident, that I will live past 100.I do not force my poems. I don't write unless I feel inspired. I have no desire to set a world record for number of poems written in a lifetime.The poems are written in a couple of minutes, 2-10, then put away in a binder by year. I have lost less than a dozen poems over the years. Usually within 5-10 minutes after writing the poem I have no real memory of what I wrote. However, if I reread it, I will have a familiarity with what I wrote. The changes I make when publishing are very few. (Maybe 1 word in every 10 poems)
Author Biography
Who is Dr. John WorldPeace JD ? When I was about 8 years old, I became aware that all human beings die. I became aware that these fragile human bodies are not immortal and eternal but are mortal and finite. I also became aware that at the end of each life, one's consciousness exits this reality with nothing but one's experiences. Into this reality, we all come without material possessions, other than our human bodies, and from this reality, we all leave with only the script of our lives which we have written. That is our testament and upon that testament, we must contemplate; not just when we die but even now when we take time to consider our life to date. My primary purpose in this life is to challenge the predatory nature of homo sapiens globally. My focus is bringing forward a more sane and just world human society. It is my intention to live a minimalist life to prove that the accumulation of wealth is not necessary for a happy and successful life and that it, in fact, creates confusion and chaos in one's life as well as the world human society. The only power I will have is the power of the truth of the various aspects of my Advocacy of peace and WorldPeace. My concept of family discounts biology. All men are my father, brother, son. All women are my mother, sister, daughter. I do not belong to any organization. I am not a religionist but a spiritualist. The difference is that religion is a corporation. Spirituality is a direct relationship with God. I changed my name to John WorldPeace (one word) on April 1, 1988, Good Friday and April Fool's day. I changed my name to WorldPeace as evidence of my commitment to increasing the peace in the world human society. I have been self-employed 95% of my career in insurance, accounting, tax, law, and now web design. I will never retire. I am also an artist and writer and poet. All incoming monies go to promoting my businesses which collaterally promote WorldPeace in one way or another. My ego is firmly anchored in my WorldPeace Advocacy and not in any way with the egotistic accumulation and management of physical assets or money in the bank as an objective in my life or measure of success. I am 100% committed to increasing the peace in the world human society and not committed to the accumulation of assets except incidentally to promote WorldPeace. I am primarily an Advocate for Peace and WorldPeace but I am not a pacifist. Dr. John WorldPeace JD
